I don't get it, what's the fuss about? he's not even very good. There I was watching Muse kick off when he wanders on stage and the band goes through another rendition of something that has one effect, 3 notes and bugger all skill. At least when he f

the fact that he is in a band that are 5x better than MUSE will ever be... possibly.ked off Matt Bellamy rocked the jointhe may not be the fastest or whatever bit his guitar work has been very good on many songs, judge him by his final sound, not how he gets there.

Worth watching It Might Get Loud if you're genuinely interested in The Edge. Whilst technically he might not be the best guitar player in the world I thought his thought process was quite interesting.
He takes the piss out of himself for his reliance on technology too as at one point he does the main riff to one of U2's songs (Elevation I think) and say something along the lines of "but it doesn't sound very good with no effects" and he's just playing 2 notes.

I don't think anyone thinks he's a great guitarist but he is inovative in his use of technology (bearing in mind how long U2 have been going now).
He played to his strenghts, it works in the music they make.
Personally I think all these widdly widdle players are crap, brilliant technically but playing guitar is about more than how many notes you can get in to a bar.

This is spot on, i much prefer a melodic guitar sound than any number of joe satriani rip offs, see peter green, clapton and paul kossoffHe played to his strenghts, it works in the music they make.
