terpfan - please listen to "Because the Night" before you disrespect Bruce's guitar. Of course, that was almost 35 years ago, but listen to "Worlds Apart" if you want something more recent.
He may be able to play on the album, but he's terrible live. I've heard him play and he's just not good enough, not even close to be playing solos in a "jam session" however lame it actually is.
