Jenn, not everything is equally excellent

Where did I say that?

Here, its the sum history of your postings.
You go gaga over eryone.

OK, let's try this:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0vWQk47ROcw

This guy sucks. *If I played this badly, I'd start doing live sound
at a
church for a living. *He should quit.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2ac4MsjQaEc

This should instead be "Blowin Chunks". *Can't he at least learn to
TUNE
fercryinoutloud? *This guy plays like Dylan presently sings.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d2DC6S4i4wk

Are you kidding me? *Your Lowden is WAY outclassing you. *You're
killing
this beautiful arrangement. *And close your lips.

you gaga and fawn over everyone you know.

No I don't.

If you know someone, then that makes them the best ion the world.

No it doesn't.

You must know some mediocre,'or even just merely good players!

Of course. *But why would I talk about them here?

I'm glad that we could clear that up.

When someone mentions *a name of a person
you kn ow, I never here you say that he is mediovre, or
even merely good.
He is always just fantastice!!!

You're not thinking this through with any kind of normal reasoning:

1. *Yes, everyone I have presented here, like the guitarists, are great. *
Otherwise, why would I post their stuff. *"OK gang, here are some really
mediocre musicians for you to listen to. *Enjoy!"

No, I refer to your gaga's over everyone you'know, it is not related
to your links.

WHich is a straw man. *Name someone I know who I believe is mediocre,
and I'll tell you.

2. *If one of my friends looks themselves up on The Google and sees that
I have called them "mediocre", it would hurt our relationship. *The
logical fallacy that you are committing is that you think that I always
comment when a friend is mentioned. *I don't. *If I don't care for what
they do, I stay quiet. *I have to work with these people.

Then we should not pay any attention to your opinions of them,

Please, feel free. *No, really.

they are candy colored as not to offend your friends and professional
acquaintances.
You are telling us that you can't tell us
waht you really think. Since you don't want
to offend them, you fawn over them ina sycophantic fashion.
this is exactly waht I have been talking about.
I am glad that you can realize that and admit it.

Can go go off on a limb enough to rank those
finger style guitar players? You can add a provisi
that even the last one on the list is very good, if you wish.
But rank order them for me, please.

Let's say that you worked in a business that was super highly
competitive, and those people are part of a very small group of people
who are qualified to do the work. *Further, several of those people are
personal friends. *WHen you work together, it is often in high pressure
situations in close quarters.

Now in that situation, would you rank the quality of those co-workers,
based on a video of their work that captures one moment in time, and
post that opinion on the internet?

I understand, because of the competitive nature of your
'business', the backstabbing, the backbiting,
the cliques, you just can't speak your true mind.
Well, that is exactly what I have been talking about, that
is what makes you appear to be a fawning sycophant
when you pour nothing but praise on the members
of your inner circle. You are dripping with insincerity
when you make those comments. You are afraid
of offending the frail ego of a musical talent who
might have some future benefit on your career.
You are afraid that the least critical word will start a backlash
against you that might cause harm to your position.
LOL!!!! That is what being a fawning sycophant is all about!!!!

PS: posts like these are what being a rambling drunk is all about!!!!

LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

you are too much of a coward to rank the vids

LOL!

you have no excuse at all, you don't even work woth those people.

You haven't told me the point of your little demand.

Meanwhile, I don't take orders from drunks. LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I don't work with anyone you would name here who is mediocre. *You don't
understand how good you have to be to make it as a performer. *I'm
BARELY in the professional performance scene in L.A. and other places. *
I've made other decisions (and interests) for my career. *I'm very, very
lucky that I can make a percentage of my income, around $20,000 a year
the past few years, as a player of brass and trombone. *So when someone
whose style I share and understand gets mentioned here, they are at a
place in the profession where they are REALLY special players; the top
fraction of a percent of the people who are serious about playing. *If
you ask 100 people are really into this niche of guitar playing (solo
fingerstyle acoustic) who their favorite 5 players are, the vast
majority would name those players I shared YouTube videos of.

you shared more than five players. which of these are in 'your'
top five, and in what order?

In no order: *Smith, Juber, Huttlinger, Gerhard, McManus. *Based on more
than these videos.

Probably based on the five you most are in fear of ****ing off!
I can only go by these vids, plus
some others posted earlier.
There was nothing of any musical interest from Juber.

Have you been playing long, Clyde? What kind of box do you own (I'm
not referring to wine boxes)?

Jenn, not everything is equally excellent

Where did I say that?

Here, its the sum history of your postings.
You go gaga over eryone.

OK, let's try this:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0vWQk47ROcw

This guy sucks. *If I played this badly, I'd start doing
live
sound
at a
church for a living. *He should quit.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2ac4MsjQaEc

This should instead be "Blowin Chunks". *Can't he at least
learn to
TUNE
fercryinoutloud? *This guy plays like Dylan presently
sings.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d2DC6S4i4wk

Are you kidding me? *Your Lowden is WAY outclassing you.
*You're
killing
this beautiful arrangement. *And close your lips.

you gaga and fawn over everyone you know.

No I don't.

If you know someone, then that makes them the best ion the
world.

No it doesn't.

You must know some mediocre,'or even just merely good
players!

Of course. *But why would I talk about them here?

I'm glad that we could clear that up.

When someone mentions *a name of a person
you kn ow, I never here you say that he is mediovre, or
even merely good.
He is always just fantastice!!!

You're not thinking this through with any kind of normal reasoning:

1. *Yes, everyone I have presented here, like the guitarists, are
great. *
Otherwise, why would I post their stuff. *"OK gang, here are some
really
mediocre musicians for you to listen to. *Enjoy!"

No, I refer to your gaga's over everyone you'know, it is not related
to your links.

WHich is a straw man. *Name someone I know who I believe is mediocre,
and I'll tell you.

2. *If one of my friends looks themselves up on The Google and sees
that
I have called them "mediocre", it would hurt our relationship. *The
logical fallacy that you are committing is that you think that I
always
comment when a friend is mentioned. *I don't. *If I don't care for
what
they do, I stay quiet. *I have to work with these people.

Then we should not pay any attention to your opinions of them,

Please, feel free. *No, really.

they are candy colored as not to offend your friends and professional
acquaintances.
You are telling us that you can't tell us
waht you really think. Since you don't want
to offend them, you fawn over them ina sycophantic fashion.
this is exactly waht I have been talking about.
I am glad that you can realize that and admit it.

Can go go off on a limb enough to rank those
finger style guitar players? You can add a provisi
that even the last one on the list is very good, if you wish.
But rank order them for me, please.

Let's say that you worked in a business that was super highly
competitive, and those people are part of a very small group of people
who are qualified to do the work. *Further, several of those people are
personal friends. *WHen you work together, it is often in high pressure
situations in close quarters.

Now in that situation, would you rank the quality of those co-workers,
based on a video of their work that captures one moment in time, and
post that opinion on the internet?

I understand, because of the competitive nature of your
'business', the backstabbing, the backbiting,
the cliques, you just can't speak your true mind.
Well, that is exactly what I have been talking about, that
is what makes you appear to be a fawning sycophant
when you pour nothing but praise on the members
of your inner circle. You are dripping with insincerity
when you make those comments. You are afraid
of offending the frail ego of a musical talent who
might have some future benefit on your career.
You are afraid that the least critical word will start a backlash
against you that might cause harm to your position.
LOL!!!! That is what being a fawning sycophant is all about!!!!

You didn't answer the question.

I answered it in another post from you.
I wouldn't be saying anything at all about my
business associates, because if all i did
were to sing the highest praises, it would
'appear to make me look like a phony,
like a fawning sycophant.

Why would I want to post about my business associates for whom I held no
respect?

Otherwise it was a perfect comparison.

No, I remember seeing acoustic, solo, fingerpicking vids

OK, maybe someone will remember who they were.

I posted links to the Amazing Tommy Emmanuel.

The truth is nobody you associate with is a top notch, in-demand, world

Let's get something straight here right now : Hollywood contracts are no
measure of talent.

Is that your "true" persona, Dickless -- the raging, impotent Usenet
egomaniac?

Ah, threats. Very easy to deal with on live.com.

I'm sure microsoft are just gagging to receive an email from somebody who is
so mentally deranged that they perceive any ambiguous statement to be a
threat.

I'm sure you're right. Why don't you get all "****ed up" and find out?

That is where your being a fawning sycophant comes into play.
You are ass kissing.

No, ass kissing would be saying they are better than they are to try to
get close to them or some other reason.

You do that a lot.

Incorrect

You kiss ass day in, day out.
Of course you lack the balls to admit this!
As Clyde says you're a fawning sycophant.

In my case, not having balls is as it should be. How's it working out
for you?

Why would they? Lack of understanding of the music business noted.

He is competent, but not musical.
Htere were others posting here at that time who agreed.

Thanks for your opinion. I suppose that the Hollywood contractors are
simply wrong.

We only have your assertion that Jubby is the most sought after session
guitarist in the world.

I didn't say that, but close enough. If you don't believe me, call the
contractors. Or go to Local 47 and check the date books. Knock
yourself out.

lol Let's just say it's a pretty good indication.
