I always hated the way Billy sang that song. Rick's playing was technically fine, but I found the last solo in particular to be uninspired and boring. It was too anthem-like...which is fine for some bands and some songs, but not an emotionally charged song like GYOW.

I respect Rick a lot. He's a decent guitarist and unfortunetly didn't really go anywhere in his career. However, I think Billy sucks miserably. I don't believe they should've performed any Lindsey song, just like I don't believe Stevie should sing Landslide unless she's has a strong connection with whoever's playing the guitar.
