[GaLiF94]

[beardyman9]

Holy Moly, I,ve always loved this solo. Brilliant! I,d give my right arm to be able to play like that.

[shredder1965]

Ever listen to Holdsworth? You're on the right track bro.

[polishcomedy]

@shredder1965 Yeah, look through my videos, I have a cover of Holdsworth's solo to "On the Frozen Lake", off Heavy Machinery.

[shredder1965]

@polishcomedy Holdsworth, Steve Morse, alot of versatility. Love it dude!

Your guitar is out of tune dude!!

[Gradius143]

awesome bro,can you tell me how long it took you to learn this? and how long to master it like you do.thanks

[juancortes1979]

Great job dude!!!

[metalguitarist11]

great job

[hopkinWFG]

Great playing !!! mind to share the tabs out with us?

[polishcomedy]

Thanks.  I just put the link in the comments section.

[hopkinWFG]

thanks alot and thats kind of you !! i dont know if i could play it as well as you thou but i'll try haha

[polishcomedy]

Good luck. Don't worry, I didn't do it perfectly, either. I'm not a big 8 finger tapper, but it's fun to do now and again.

[hopkinWFG]

haha your just being too modest buddy !! your playing is fantastic IMO keep it up !!

[vainstan]

tj would be proud

[TruthSurge]

hahahaha you did a great job and then at the end... one flub! I hate that. Sucks. I find TJ's technique can get a bit boring and too repetitive after a while. It's just uuuuuup doooooown. But it's also the monotony of the groove underneath that gets old. Three or 4 chords over and over. But, I think you did a good job.

[SabuPtolemy]

Mastering that technique is just crazy.

[guitarplayeraustin]

Ive been working on the 8 finger tapping technique lately and getting good at it..This looks like a cool song to learn. Is there tabs for it anywhere?

[pythonflying]

Great job, looks hard to do. I don't have the patience to learn that technique.

[newthings158]

that was really nice, I'd like to learn to tap like that except I'm working on so many other things, want to know it all. didn't need to damn everything though, try blessing things! Sorry, I'm just an old hippy

[iamrathercool12121]

wow. that was fucking good!!

how do you practice the 8 finger stuff??

ive been trying to get it together but nothing is working for me.

[polishcomedy]

i've gotta be honest, i never really practice that technique. i just take a new piece, spend some time with it and get it down. you can play anything you put your mind to i believe.

[allgreen12345]

yea reat job!

[newthings158]

yeah, I can see all that practice that never took place! :)

[sakuraorigami]

Damn good - God!

[damonstoudamiree]

Bravissimo,non hai sbagliato niente!

[wildjealousy]

god damn it!

[eesloan4]

pretty fucking well done

[vahlahweeeee]

Absolutely awesome!

I've never seen anyone even dare to attempt that.

T.J's style is just totally out there, out nailed it dude!

[Sammyman7]

GOD DAMNIT! You were playing pretty damn flawlessly until the end, I hate when I butcher the final notes of a ridiculously tough solo. You did a great job, though. Keep up the awesome work!

[crazy7gamer]

wow wtf wrong with you you are sick

[richcastle66]

Butchering?! 0_0

[marquesjunior]

awesome man awesome !

[polishcomedy]

thanks, but i'm going to redo it hopefully this week

[Diazep]

5 of 5!

amazing

[alepsis]

hey good job man that was cool

[eightfingertapping]

Hey man,

Nice work

[prasiddha]

Honestly;

You're technical facilities on the guitar always surprise me. You always are able to do a new and more difficult technique every time.

If only you STOP playing the drums, and focus on guitars, I'm sure that you're videos will get MUCH more attention.

And, you should try one of these days to cover an ENTIRE song instead of just a solo or just a bit. It would definitely get you much more attention.

Attention that you would DESERVE.

[polishcomedy]

Thanks, man. I'm going to redo this solo, though. It has a lot of mistakes. As far as whole songs I usually do them on the drums when JJ is playing with me on guitar. The Steve Morse tune was a complete song, although it was on multiple instruments.  You won't tear me from my drum kit, though, it's my true love.

[rockster10101]

Amazing job!!!!!

[cowcrusher]

man do you have any notation or tabs for this thing, or did you do it by ear? I think Helmerich and Garsed are amazing guitarists, I'd buy Brett's dvd if it was $50
