That may be so Donny and Joe et al, but at the gigs we play here, if punters see a solo with all that "fluff" as one so aptly put it going on, they turn and go back out the same door!! They want to hear the person, good or bad, not the machine!

Not that I like the fluff anyway -never have -, even if the audience didn't care...I care about what I am doing, plus playing more parts makes it much more fun
