rock and roll is not high art.
Why do so many forget that?

I couldn't disagree more. Playing sloppily is not only insulting and disrespectful of one's paying audience, it also show laziness and lack of technical prowess. Lots of rock players are every bit as talented as sculptors, painters or stage actors. They practice hours on end for many years to expand their ability, songwriting and style. If you love Page because he's sloppy, you must hate players like Eric Johnson.
