the MENDEZ thread!!!

^ Oh I remember wondering the same in another thread... But I finally came to the conclusion that after what I've seen on Lamentations, I can assume he doesn't seem to be a good interviewee, at least for english speaking interviewers
 
I found an Interview on the net the other day with Mendez. I cant remember where it was though.
 
i absoloutely LOVE Mendez!!! he pointed at me, smiled and gave me horns up 4 times ! (at the sydney show) thats only because i kept calling out 'OI MENDEZ!!' when nobody else was. damn he's a good bass player... you should have seen his bass guitar that night.. that squier was mighty!

Mendez certainly pwns all the N00bs. I liked in the Lamentations documentary when he was trying to do that fill in Deliverance and finally got it after a bunch of tries. Honesty!

People always come up with this argument as a reason to criticize Mendez. You're fucking pathetic, I say. I bet less than half of those who do, don't play an instrument and the half that does, never had to learn a line from another person in the same circumstances he had and didn't catched it the first time or the second one as well.

He's an awesome bassplayer, surely not the best, farfalla (or whatever is his name) was good too. No one in opeth can be "considered the best", so shut the fuck up and listen to Opeth instead of arguing about one's way of learning a line.
