No particular point there, just reminded me of it.
I don't know...I prefer listening to actual music
These guys above are both talented and hard working, the hours that have gone into playing like that shows the commitment and dedication. It is very, very impressive.
But... it's not original. I've never really liked covers, unless they get totally rearranged into a different song. I value originality more
But that wasn't the case at all, it very much is actual music, it's just like classical guitar.
Yeah maybe it's just me. Not really a fan of classical guitar either.
As above, I prefer the originals.
I thought this might be a gateway drug for some
For me, it was hearing 40oz and GOAT by polyphia. I had never heard anything like it before.
Shame you think it’s a total waste of his and everyone else’s time.
Idiotwindow's point was completely valid. No one, including you, would actually think he was saying the boy should stop playing guitar.
Your post is a lot more negative than his btw.
"Join a gang" lol
Nothing wrong with pointing that out and don't need your permission to do it.
You're perfectly entitled to not like it but not sure what benefit you seem to think there is to say he's just wasting everyone's time.
I was interested in his opinion and agree with it. That's all a forum is. I doubt many people are as interested in your opinion of other posts.
What a boring forum it would be if the only time anyone ever posted is if they happen to have nothing but positive opinions on the topic of each thread.
Anyway, thanks for explaining what a forum is. Lucky to have a chap like you about to ensure everything is running smoothly. Keep fighting the good fight!
But then almost no one would actually sit and listen to the recording just for musical enjoyment the way people listen to their favourite artists. On that same vein, when they are listening to the music they enjoy they don't even consider if the guitar parts are all played in real time by one guy with fast hands or if it's done over several takes or with several musicians doing different parts each (and they wouldn't care if they were told).
It's similar to those people who can do millions of keepy uppies while doing handstands and all sorts - it's impressive but wouldn't actually be useful in a football match.
I don't think that either example should be doing something different, impressing people might be a goal of theirs - that was a goal of mine when I was a teenager and first started making music - and I'm sure it brings him lots of enjoyment which is reason enough to do it.
But when we get away from the extremes shown in the examples, we can all take the theory of it on board; for example, when playing guitar or bass in a band it can be tempting to choose to play fancy bits that are difficult to play to show off skills to other musicians but maybe a simpler, easy to play part could have suited the song better.
I think the thing I'd enjoy most - if a genie suddenly gave me this boy's skills - would be going to guitar shops and trying out guitars but hitting out with that kind of thing on the shop floor. I think I'd probably start touring round cities to do that for attention as well as trying out loads of great guitars.
