  • Immortality has an EPIC solo...I'm sick of Even Flow...

    How about the worst solo? My vote is for Wishlist. I 3y ear old can play that!

    The beauty of Wishlist is in the simplicity.

    Not to mention that it's quite a bit more sophisticated than you would think.. the eBow does take some getting used to after all. "Can you get to an eBow?"

    Yeah, Eddie sure does love his eBow. :)

    I loved watching that in SVT. It is a very simple solo, but it blends with the song oh so well.

    So many come to mind, but it doesn't get any better than the "Alive" studio version. "Immortatlity" isn't far behind.
  • Garden (studio) has a pretty badass solo to.


    Yes, Garden does have a killer solo. Also some great solos from that song from back in the day, like the Atlanta 94 version. Wow, Mike really goes to town on that one.
