Who is the best guitarist of all time??

Segovia practiced classical guitar SPECIFICALLY since he was 4. There is no way anbody in the modern era can play Bach like Segovia, and I doubt any rock guitarist has the balls nor the lack of intelligence to claim "I can play bach like segovia". You don't know what you are talking about my friend, Segovia was a master. Just becuase you can play Bach doesnt mean you can play Bach with heart, soul, and have 90 years of perfecting each piece.

Thats what I said from the get go. LIKE andres segovia. I didnt say none of them can play the music he does. I never said once that NOBODY can play what he does, just that nobody can play classical like him with such expertise and such mastery. Heck I know that a lot of rock guitarist can play classical pieces. It's IGNORANT to say they can play it as beautifull as he did. Thats all i was saying.

No you didn't.

VVD asked you if you meant people couldn't play LIKE him or people couldn't play his stuff at all, you said; Either.

Now, I may be misquoting (I'm not), but I said 'play his stuff'.

You said they couldn't.

Then you claimed tabs don't apply to classical guitar, and that Segovia polished every piece for 90 years.

So, what you now claim you said, you didn't. Perhaps you thought it, but it's usually best to write it down. Just in case the person you are thinking to isn't a telepath.

First off, I showed TWO quotes where I clearified myself, even if you did misunderstand me (but I'm sure youll be stubborn and STILL bring up the first vague thing I said). I said play "like" him. So read those again. Second what I quoted above could be taken two ways, apparently I misunderstood the question. I thought the "like" was" attached to the "play his stuff" and as well. I misread your question. To clarify for you, since you can't seem to grasp the meaning of the phase "nobody can play like him.." appeartly you assumed that equates to "...nobody can play the stuff he does...". I meant nobody can write in the same way or play the same way as he did. So stop tying to find something to argue about and please stop arguing over nothing.

No, he did quite clearly ask you if you meant write like him OR play his stuff.

You messed up the interpretation, so accept responsibility.

Every time someone debates you, all you do is get upset and accuse people of arguing over nothing. It's a debate forum, deal with it.

People can play the same style and play like him, whether or not a lesser experienced rock guitarist would be as skilled as a 60 year veteran of classical is unlikely, but to say they couldn't play any of his stuff is wrong, which is what you said. Nobody misunderstood you, you said nobody could write like him OR play his stuff, we took it as such, we're not mind readers.

Try saying what you mean.

What you can't read either? I clarified myself in two post immediately afterward. It's not my fault you two choose to dwell on my first one. You two just enjoy arguing too much, and I did accept responsobility, I read his question wrong.
And i do'nt mind arguring, as long as people dont try to argue with me about a misunderstanding. Which I've told you both is the case. I'd be happy to argue with you if I felt we were arguing about something.

Ok, then it's a misunderstanding, no problem.

Anyways, I think you're secretly sad that the "you know what" thread got closed. You missed the thrill of pointless arguing and were goign through withdrawls. Sheesh man, I was TRYING to actually support of argument,which I agrred with, I guess that fawking went well. bwhahaha. : )

I didn't misunderstand; you obviously miswrote. You then altered it, and claimed I was wrong for not knowing you had meant that.

You claimed I 'don't know what I'm talking about', though you now, rightly, acknowledge that it was indeed you going wrong.

You then called me an idiot and ignorant for not understanding what you were saying. Sorry, thinking (because you hadn't actually said it yet).

I said play "like" him.

Yes, later.

Originally posted by 2D_MASTER

So read those again.

Ok. Yep, it was later.

Second what I quoted above could be taken two ways, apparently I misunderstood the question. I thought the "like" was" attached to the "play his stuff" and as well. I misread your question.

So when you say later to AC 'you can't read either?', you obviously compare him with yourself. Here are two clues as to it being two different questions:

The use of the conjunction 'or';

Also, there are two questions.

Yes, I can understand that phrase perfectly. If only you had said it, and not...not said it. You now see where you went wrong, so there should be no problem on that front. Not sure why you falsely labour under the pretence that I didn't understand your correction.

No. I know what that means as well. Fun this, saying what you mean.

It's not over nothing, it's over your mistake. Which you perpetuated, realised, and then altered what you said in a hail of impotent insults.

Admit the mistake with good grace, and it's not a big deal. Weasel out, and it continues. Pretty much the pattern of this discussion.

You should calm down, he was just saying something.

Bwhahaha. I have. I was just joking with AC anyways. I wouldnt kill him, just torture him for years until he wished he was dead.

Well, you admitted you made the mistake. Now you just need to stop the insults, and you'll have gone a good way towards not being a ****.

Nah, I think I'll keep going with the insults, if I see fit. Thanks for the tip though.

Whatever.

Stop bitching about it then.

I think I can safely leave that there.
