The part when they play in the key of E is the best part.

You know, you could sound a lot more intelligent and not make people like me mad if you just said "I like the sweeps". Talking like that just makes you look stupid.

i keep trying to download the live sixpounder vid but if its not a corrupted file it turns out to be a lesbo **** ( dont get me wrong its still cool)

So true man :-(

It's so underappreciated. I still love showing Malmsteen fanboys people like John McLaughlin and Shawn Lane.

[QUOTE=TSASI]Shawn Lane.[/QUOTE]
actually my teacher let me borrow some vids of him playing and i dident think they where very good i think malmsteens better.

So...that Children of Bodom is one great band eh?

Whaaaaaaaattttttttttttt.............

You may not like his style, but you have to admit that he is one of the most skilled guitarists ever. I actually don't think that there's been another guitarist that is technically better than him.

not from what i saw i wasnt as impressed as alexi and malmsteen

I must ignore the lyrics on most songs. They are, for the most part, aura ruining.

:confused: Tee-sassy uploaded a live video of him playing and I thought he was great. Keep in mind that there's a whole lot more to guitar than speed and shredding.

[QUOTE=NEVRMORE2]not from what i saw i wasnt as impressed as alexi and malmsteen[/QUOTE]
Trust me, Lane is way faster than Alexi and Malmsteen put together. The thing is though, he doesn't overdue it at all with fast playing. He also mastered theory in general, meaning that he can seamlessly play on guitar, keyboard, bass, etc.

the stuff i saw in the videos was semi fast but he seemd to be struggling with it.

I really hope you're kidding :-\

From what I saw, that guy could shred with his weiner if he wanted to. He didn't seem to be struggling at all.

Well said, buddy. Kirk Hammet is way faster than SRV, but that doesnt make him better, now does it?

Yeah Lane is incredible. I have one of his instructional videos. I'm not a fan of jazz but i can admit that guy is the fastest i've ever seen. Also has some nice compositions so he's not all speed.

Is Shawn Lane the guy with the 8 string guitar?

If yes, he's hella good.

If not, I'm thinking of somebody else...

He was playing a six string in the video I saw. Is it just me, or does an 8 string guitar seem a little excessive?

If you can play it right, no...cause it effectively eliminates the need for a bass.

Yeah, and we bassists don't get enough credit now anyways! :D

[QUOTE=Shattered_Future]If you can play it right, no...cause it effectively eliminates the need for a bass.[/QUOTE]
I suppose. I always thought it makes more sense to make full use of a bassist. I'd rather go without a bass because a guitar with such a low pitch sounds terrible. It's like nu metal crap. But I guess when done right it can be as good as anything else.
