Old News From Fretmaster Yngwie Malmsteen

Yngwie Malmsteen

Yes, dear readers, I'm resorting to the sort of debased tactics that any old cheap, unoriginal blogger resorts to, I'm rehashing ancient news about someone very few of you could give a hoot about. Why, you ask? Because I think it's hysterical.

For the under-informed, Yngwie Malmsteen is a furious Telecaster Stratocaster (how could I make this mistake, I play guitar. I'm blaming it on the fact that I was listening to Springsteen when I wrote the post. Thanks to Dan Wiznitzer for the correction.) madman from Sweden who can put Eddie Van Halen to shame with his clarity, his clean playing, and his big hair.  I don't know when this happened, but at some point in his career (whether recent or ancient), Yngwie was having a particularly ridiculous flight to Tokyo, was undoubtedly obliterated, and managed to ire another passenger who poured water all over the golden child.  Listen and laugh.  Experience "the fury".
