I'm sure his "bad" attitude is truly genuine and as such perfectly  
accurate. In the same sense, wasn't Paganini and Mozart punks  
too? ;-)  I think Yngwie has a wonderful guitar tone and way of  
phrasing but there goes my limit for what I can stand of his music. I  
just can't help that I like his attitude and tone so much more than  
his music. I wonder what John would have asked if given the same  
question. Any guesses? ;-)
