I'm not sure if I agree with the "anyone can play like that" mentality. Anyone could play like that perhaps, but everyone DOESN'T play like that. That doesn't mean his music is particularly enjoyable, it's just silly when people say, "Hey, I could do that -- I just need to practice more." Well, no shit, you can say that about anything in life.
It's like the Strokes (for lack of a better example)... anyone here can play their songs right? That's nice. You didn't WRITE their songs, though, right? It doesn't matter that you can play the songs, you didn't actually compose them though.
Anyone can do anything probably, but they haven't done it yet, so it's not really worth mentioning.
I understand and somewhat agree with Everyneurotic's way of thinking (that he has no real talent beyond ability, it's all technique; there's nothing interesting or unique about it, it's just fast scale playing), but I'm not sure if I'd say "oh anyone can do that if they practice."
