Very true. Too bad tremolo solos was pretty much all Kerry could do. Of course, it must be hard to play scales when you have 50lbs of spikes on your forearm.
There's also James Iha from Smashing Pumpkins. He used tremolo solos pretty effectively; without too much velveeta.
I feel the same way about "Slap 'n Pop" bass. Although, John Taylor used it quite well... Way before every other white bassist in the freaking world abused it. Regardless of whatever people think of Duran Duran, they wouldn't have been the same without it.
For that matter, "No Sleep Till Brooklyn" wouldn't be the same without Kerry's wammy goodness. :)
