Happy Birthday Adam!
It's Adam's birthday in this part of the world, and as is tradition I shall post a Youtube video that contains some of his best work. The album 10,000 Days was pretty strong in regards to Adam's guitar work, and while it's easy to highlight Jambi as a defining solo, I actually think the solos in the 10,000 Days (Wings Part 2) track are the best on the album. Maynard may object, but here's a decent recording of it live:

Contrary to expectation, I will not be using this as an opportunity to say how much of a douchebag I think he is.
Rather, I've always, ALWAYS loved the textures and tone he uses, and will never forget the first time I heard songs like "The Grudge", "Lateralus", "Euology", "4 Degrees" etc etc ad nauseum.
The guy has a wonderfully unique way of handling a guitar and slammin' a riff, and for that, I'll always have quite a bit of respect for him.

O love will you read the letters I will send to you.
@crow011 You've definitely peaked my interest as to why you think he's a "douchebag". While I understand he's not the most personable member of the band (leave that to Danny and Justin) he's also not the least personable member of the band. He's the key component to the band's visual aspect and also has the most diverse portfolio within the band. Did you meet him or something and maybe he was short with you? Like I said... I'm not judging you for having the opinion you have, as I said before... You've peaked my interest. I've never met any of them so anything I might have to say about their personalities is based strictly off of interviews I've read, watched or listened to....

i love the way the album version of this song sounds on headphones, swirling from left channel to right. i saw My Morning Jacket this summer and Jim James was using a pedal to create a similar effect on one of their songs, bouncing the sound back and forth b/t the right and left stacks. It was a cool audio trick. I wonder why (maybe he did and I just dont remember, I saw this song twice live) Adam didnt use something similar? also interesting that a riff from this song has been played as far back as the lateralus tour in 2002.

Happy Birthday Adam.
Every birthday is a good one.
BTW, you share a birthday with a friend of mine
and wouldn't you know, his nickname is 'Fish.'
