SimonWaldram	Date: March 11, 2006 @ 7:35 AM Gene, that guy's fantastic! I much prefer him to the kid 'cos he actually playing music rather than just a bunch of notes really quickly. And Distilled, thanks for what you said, man. I'd never quit the guitar really, even though I know I'll never be that great.
EchoMinor	Date: March 11, 2006 @ 8:48 AM shred is overrated, anyone who thinks its a must to be proficient on the guitar needs to be caned.
TonyV	Date: March 11, 2006 @ 9:10 AM I will never look at a Mandolin the same way. That guy wails!

Majyk	Date: March 15, 2006 @ 6:33 PM i loved the ukulele player, that was awesome, some of those sounds that came out of that instrument were so beautiful. and he did just about all you can do with something that small. but the kid was insane as well.

Dizeazed	Date: March 16, 2006 @ 3:40 AM Cheese and rice! I'd have to take half the worlds supply of speed if I was to play anything that fast.

leflaw	Date: May 4, 2006 @ 7:38 PM SCrew that 8 year old. Listen to this 6 year old http://www.k-state.edu:24180/mccain/music/milenkovich/MOTO%20PERPETUO%20No.%202%20in%20C%20Major%20(1835).mp3
BOWILLIE	Date: May 4, 2006 @ 7:41 PM hey check out this unborn fetus.. www.nofrickinway.net/
AthenasGhost	Date: May 7, 2006 @ 3:31 PM That's pretty neat. But just because that 8 year old can play shred fast doesn't mean she can play better than everyone on DMusic, everyone has their own styles.

Etheracide	Date: July 4, 2006 @ 2:13 AM Obviously all of these musicians deserve respect and praise for their own skills. But this really isn't even necessary to an extent so no guitarist (musician) should compare themselves to anyone shown in this thread or anywhere else in the world. In giving credit where it is due, I will honestly never in my life play like the young guitarist in the first video. Whether or not it is due to my memory problems or just lack of the required amount of dexterity and physical speed to pull off such feats. But I believe that it is all about the actual feeling (as stated above) atleast when it comes to music played by a group of people. Playing in such ways can be automatic and almost robotic feeling. Just what I feel. And while I would never ever in my life be known as an amazing guitarist and may barely have my name known because of guitar...I like to think that someday my band will be known because our music is made by musicians who play well off of eachother. But that aside, there is some super amazing guitar/ukalele/whatecer playing going on and it is great to see what others around the world can do! Thanks for sharing, each of you.
AbortiveMind	Date: July 4, 2006 @ 6:17 AM Hmzzz You sure that's an 8 year old ? 'Cause his face's shape is quite strong Maybe it's a friggin cool midget
Etheracide	Date: July 4, 2006 @ 8:38 AM Only if he's one of those rare long-fingered midgets!
GreatGooglyM...	Date: July 8, 2006 @ 5:57 AM I remember seeing this video two years back. To be honest though, that performance seems very mechanical. I want to see him improvise on that speed with those techniques.
hueseph	Date: July 9, 2006 @ 4:25 AM The first kid was amazing. I kinda wonder though if he's living out his dads fantasy. I feel sorry for kids like that. The Ukulele guy is good but man is he ever a cheese ball. That's what I expect from phlips though. The blind guy....well, Jeff Healey did it first and even he admitted it was a gimick. He learned the guitar the way we all do and his producer or manager suggested he play it that funky way as a side show thing. Anahilator! Good to see the home town boys. What's the name of that smurf with Tallica again? Bah. He don't compare! People who think that shredding is just playing lots of note fast are the same people who are too lazy to practice. Shredding is playing lots of notes fast that make sense and are harmonically coherant. Anyone can play lots of notes fast. Playing lots of notes fast and making it sound like it has some sort of logic, there's definitely some skill and talent in that.
Thotec	Date: July 9, 2006 @ 11:25 PM If you know your scales and your fretboard then shredding isn't that hard. And doing it "harmonically coherent" (as you put it) is simple, if you've done the theory to learn the scale then you know what should and shouldn't sound good. Plus hitting notes that fast means it doesn't matter what the interval is because it's going to be instantly taken over by another note. It's not hard, though i can't do it so i can't really speak but one of my best mates can and he is by no means a good guitarist.
GreatGooglyM...	Date: July 10, 2006 @ 4:24 AM You know, Thotec, your post was complete BS. Knowing scales and fretboard don't equal to great shred skill. That's a small part of it. Plus hitting notes that fast means it doesn't matter what the interval is because it's going to be instantly taken over by another note. That's the basic thing that the ignorat people say. Of course it matters. Playing a wrong note in the wrong place will ruin the whole lick, no matter how fast you do it. i can't do it so i can't really speak Then why did you do it?
