There's nothing worse than a guy with blazing chops, who has no subtlety, and cranks out impossible patterns at 90mph, with no regard for musical expression.
Like that dude from Blues Traveler that just wanks and wanks?

Oh, wait, yes there is, it's the guy with no chops, who drones on about his self-centered feelings in one song after another that sounds exactly the same.
Gonna get in trouble here....ya mean like the Grateful Dead?

How about Kenny G...whose musical stylings consist of playing the scales.

another great non-sequitur

Quote:
I'm alternating between heavy and light
Between meaning and nonsense
And having a drink

I have counted all the lines on the road
Between here and Los Angeles
That pass straight below

And I'm dreaming of a light, and it comes from your head
'Cause you move just like you're a train
Not like a car, no, no, it would never be the same
And the light from your eyes is like the light from a cake

I was thinking of a cake
To lift off this burden
To lighten this weight

Wind, sweet little cake dervishes
From the head of a pin
We are sleeping like angels
And living like devils again

And I am waiting for the heaviness in the air to break
And reveal some small, irrelevant truth
'Cause we move like we are suspended in amber
And the light from your eyes spills from the moon
