Paul of Dune was so bad it gave me a seizure that dislocated both of my shoulders and prolapsed my anus.

This guy has been practicing sixteen hours a day since he was a pre-teen.
Fastest guitar player ever.

Re: Crazy Guitarists
You are of course correct if by field you mean genre however if you mean brilliance then you are musically myopic. Try to see things in their own context.Redstar wrote:They're just not even in the same field!

Re: Crazy Guitarists
That's insane fast, but they should have shown what his left hand was doing up close, and then in slow motion. If he wasn't changing notes for every single pluck then I'm not impressed. Lots of people could just play a left hand sequence at arounf 160bpm and then just double the picking.Sandwurm88 wrote:[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IKdJ0FRq ... re=related[/youtube]

But if he WAS, then holy shit is the only possible response.
