      She is an exceptional guitar player from a technical point of view, and her cross picking is second to none.
      She is also a bit cleaner than Billy in terms of raw flat picking, and I suspect her accuracy is a little sharper.
      Billy gets right in your face with his energy and comes at you in an enjoyably aggressive style. He can probably play faster than Molly, but I also feel his longer solos tend to play out over a single chord.
      I'd rather listen to Billy but if it came right down to it I would find it impossible to rank one over the other.
      They're great guitar players and that's about it.

      You don't know the dark hands of greed. This boy will tear himself when he learns the sweet smell of money. It always happens. Greed is god too which every other god answers to...it's called capitalism...some foriegner can rip every local business from your hands and you will hallelujah for any walmart with in a few hours. Greed is unstoppable. As long as you can stuff food in your face, you will be comfortable with rape by business, because your local god has convinced you Jesus is a Capitalist....your down fall...you will blame on others...but deep down you worship greed. Awaken to the "blessings" of that god. Christianity is the Christians mask of "fuck you, we worship greed".

      I partly agree: As a cameraperson you notice in the very first second, that what Molly and Billy do is just breathtaking. There is simply no need for fancy camera moves and flashy editing tricks. But pretty often the performance is pale and lame, some musicians suck. In these cases the video staff tries to compensate.
