I was wondering when this video of me playing guitar would inevitably make its way to the forums.

It was supposed to be a monkey / kangaroo fire-breathing hybrid. And it would be 70 km tall, and keep a giant laser in it's pouch.

It's a perfect example of Economy of Motion, his fingers barely move.

I can play as fast as this guy, if I take enough kryptonite.

Cheers

Ultra high-five.


Math is like a toilet. They both go in the other direction in Australia.

Impressive, but it sounds absolutely terrible.

I've been playing guitar for three decades and I couldn't even play half as fast as that guy.

I cant play as good as any of those two guz, but I must admit that sometimes I can play some really cool riffs and guitarsolos. Sometimes I amaze myself while playing the guitar.
I play almost every day at least a half hour, if possible. Sometimes longer than that.
The best thing to learn to play like them guyz is start young (its easier to develop speed in the fingers at a younger age), follow profesionnal guitar lessons, and above all, practice, practice, practice...

Long live Metal. \M/

I've played for about 15 years, but for the past several years I might play an hour every couple of weeks. It sucks knowing how to play something but your hands don't anymore.

Just practiced a whole day. Got almost up to 320.5 bpm. Next attempt ... teh speed of light. Ow wait, I just realized that I already play at the speed of light. Look at the picture. Can you see my hands or fingers move? No? Well, there you have it, I play so fast that you cant even see my hands or fingers move. Yaaaaay!



Btw, I took a lot of Kryptonite to play that fast, and that's also the reason I have lazer-eyes.
