Because you've been around longer and you assume you know more. If Blade Runner plays guitar or not has nothing to do with his judgement on a player, I don't have to play to know Steve Vai is quite possibly the best guitarist ever. Why not say I can't say Cobain is a bad player because I can't play guitar, although it's common knowledge that he sucks.

I have to say this. Fuck the technical abilities, there are so many of these technichal players around, and yet only a few of these guys that really have the ability to play guitar as an instrument, not as in another way to show off. This is music for cryin' out loud, not sports. If you like these amazingly fast players then that's your taste, if someone likes Davey or Janick then that's his opinion. It's about the music, the melody and the feel, not just the technichal abilities. I dont like Janick's playing too much, but he has his good moments as you said. And guitarists like Vai and Satriani play fast, but have at the same time great melody in their hands. I really admire that, and must add that they are brilliant guitarists, but dont think that it's all about the technichal abilities.
