Don't want to be a bloody rock elitist, but some of the names you categorized as "rock" don't really fit to this category - to put it in a polite way.

Hannah 06-28-2008 11:49 AM

This thread is stupid.

Let me guess...

Justin Timberlake, Nick Carter & Hanson. Least I didn't mention Jonas Brothers.

So what if this is a stupid thread. So I like to be creative.

Dustin Kensrue, Dallas Green...others, but I can't think of them and need to get ready for work.

Take it you saw the Hannah Montana movie. Also known by its parodies; Alaska Nebraska (Simpsons) & Susannah Louisiana (Drake & Josh).

Her dad (Billy Ray) is a southpaw gutarist (lefty). Can't believe that her dad once wrote a song that only uses two guitar chords that was a big hit
(Achy Breaky Heart).

Hanson's MMMBop uses only three guitar chords. Amazing.

Voltron 05-07-2009 02:12 PM

My favorite? Guitar Raph.

Flattering, but thank you anyway.

I'm more into my vibes than guitar. Just play chords.

Sewer Bull 05-07-2009 03:24 PM

Can you put up mp3s with you singing and playing the guitar/vibes/tympani, Guitar_Raph?

A video on Youtube would be even better.

Prowler 05-11-2009 07:09 PM

Oculus Orbus 01-16-2010 08:43 AM

Kurt Cobain, I guess.

Also, Mark Arm from Mudhoney. He plays guitar sometimes, but not always.

Barkworm 01-16-2010 08:49 AM

Off the top of my head:

- Ben Harper: Great voice and his lap steel playing is awesome.
- James Hetfield: He's one of the reasons I got into rock music.
- Jerry Cantrell: One of my top three favourite song writers ever.
- Josh Homme: I just love his voice and his guitar playing. Very unique.

EDIT: These are not necessarily my favourite singers but they are singers I really like and whose guitar playing I LOVE.

Buslady 01-18-2010 04:25 PM

Spitfire 02-04-2010 11:54 AM

Alexi Laiho. Other then Megadeth Bodom is the only band I listen to regularly where the vocalist plays guitar. I like Megadeth and all but Dave's vocals can be laughable at times and some of his lyrics are cringe worthy. Granted all Bodom sings about is drinking and kicking people's asses they've managed to stay away from doing love songs.

Samhain 02-04-2010 12:22 PM

James Hetfield. The monster down picker.

Guitar_Raph 02-04-2010 09:26 PM

Justin Beiber, a southpaw guitarist.

The only time I saw him play was on that episode of True Jackson VP.

Koschei 02-22-2010 09:51 PM

Alexi Laiho- Children of Bodom
Old James Hetfield
Dave Mustain- Sometimes I dont like his vocals and other times I love it
John Gallagher- Dying Fetus: saw these guys last year, amazing. Most brutal 3 piece band.

saiyan_monkey 02-25-2010 09:34 PM

I have a new 1

Matthew James Bellamy
http://i1011.photobucket.com/albums/...ary_10/3-1.jpg

The singer/guitarist from Muse. I watched them on MTV doing a live show and I was impressed.

Samhain 02-26-2010 11:55 AM

Matt heafy from Trivium also. Got me really into 7 string stuff.
