wow, i didn't know this tune was on the tewb.

go up to about 3 minutes and you'll hear what i think is the most impressive and challenging guitar piece ever written. i have a recording of segovia doing it in the 60s in his prime. this guy actually does it too fast but it's still friggin' impressive as hell.

i got blisters on my fingers!!!!!!!!

that's beautiful. is that a standard ukelele or is it altered somehow, to enhance its face-removing rock properties?

Yamasheesha is ridiculously impressive.

Let me try and find Zakk Wylde doing Speedball, it's pretty cool.

not as pyrotechnic as the above but it has its moments and is just ethereal in that way only steve howe can do.

Aren't you already legally gay?

Similar to Steve Howe is this fella; Dominic Frasca.. who actually has a passing similarity to you, don't you think? It's the shape of the head.

Petrucci is insane.

He does everything whilst still maintaining a melody to the structure as a whole.

You've heard Michael Angelo Batio right? He's incredible in regard to how fast he plays, but that's it, it's just fast, there's no composition, just speed.

Yeah, he does the Richard Thompson thing, you know him right? He's got abnormally large hands.. but for real, not like you with your photo-enhanced hands.

Still, they could all learn something from the Skwisgaar Skwigelf Advanced Hand Finger Wizard Master Class.
