That guy played at Deke Dickerson's Guitar Geek Fest 2 years back.
great technique if your into that stuff.
I can't stand the sqeeky guitar pick sound.
I couldn't wait for his 15 min to be up.

It's amazing and all that, but it is also a great example of more is less.

yeah too true,
I don't mind it as badly when he plays slow single notes in a more melodic style,
its the weedley weedley weedley stuff that bores me.
Especially the sweep picking.
check please moment for sure.

Yeah, it's yawn yawn for me, too. I like his vibrato when he actually holds a note for more than a 32nd note!

His left hand technique is incredibly fast. But the way he set up his gear, he almost doesn't need to pick at all. There is so much gain and the strings are thin as spider silk.
What I need is a speedy right hand lesson with a set of 13s.

Awesome!
This guy is crazy fast too: (you gotta wait through about 3.5 minutes of awesomly cheesy hair metal before the solo)

Michael Angelo is completely over the top.
But it doesn't get much faster within the context of a band and a song than the mighty DRAGONFORCE!!!!

Power metal at its more 'powerest.' Check out the solos from 3:00 to 4:15.
One of the major influences on the guitarists: early eighties video games (Pac Man, all the Atari stuff, etc.). You can definitely tell!!!

How utterly annoying! Like playing a mozart album on 78 RPM - and then some. This actually got more on my nerves then watching my friend play Tetris at level 18-3. wow.

Yeah, totally annoying to say the least, especially on a surf music forum...

How about just deleting it to avoid further damage?

Did any one catch the last part of the video!??!?!
His arms/hands are moving at inhuman speeds!
Dragonforce is hilarious, I had the pleasure of seeing them at a festival a while back.

I gotta admit, I kind of dig Dragonforce.
But that could just be me. Granted, all their songs sound the same, but at least they've got good melodic structures.
