But then again I felt the same way in 2008 and it took one song for me to jam out to a jeff solo.

I know people hate Jeff for not being Roi, but I think they'd hate him more if he went out there and tried to play like Roi.

I think those iconic solos will be okay as long as the new guy/gal makes them their own and does them their own way. People are going to resent it if they go out there and try to match Boyd skree for skree on LIOG.
