[LovacNaBudale]

Anybody knows where I can find new Michael's album HWS2?

[fjfelix20]

You just don't mess with Batio, lightning might come out his hands at you or something

[kurei008]

how awesome would be to have mike teach in the way of his awesomness?

[murrymurf]

he is the chuck norris of guitar

[leedguitar2009]

mab makes perfection seem like a realistic goal. he is a inspiration to millions!! He is everything a guitarist should aspire to be, and i will stay a loyal fan always!!!!! thank you michael

[ShredderVIII]

not only is he amazing but he looks like a guy you'd want on your side in a bar fight

look at those arms...him and petrucci both

[TheKidGuitarist]

I'd want him on my side in a bar fight, because he could melt my opponent's face with his awesome shredding!

[thepain001]

lol

[ZolTaN190]

He is the best. No one is even close to beat him

[AleXonOdin]

0 mistake, gotta love his playing !!! Awesomeness

[vanillagorillafu]

Suit yourselves up for battle, our commander has spoken!

[zacot12345]

I wonder if this is the version that he teaches in the Metal Method DVD, because taht would be sweet

[kbkbabbie]

Yeah! He's so awesome!

[jscottizabeast]

I'm left handed and play right handed too!!!

[xxxBlueBeexxx]

Michael Angelo Batio..he is a guitar beast..

[mr252307]

omfg. speechless

[blaarrrgggggggg]

O_O Flawless.

[propsforprops]

He's so accurate.

[deviltriggerinc]

Amen!

[gatitomestre]

is the machine¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡­¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡

[Jonte1338]

this video is made on my birthday :D nice playing!

[StratisDem]

You're so amazingly right man!

[IlikeGOODguitarists]

Look how he holds his hand during the first really fast part! Maybe that could be one of his secrets of success? Or it could be because he is left handed playing guitar right handed....

[karateguitarkid]

its his picking style... tremolo picking

[pbmdh]

Well he's ambidextrous, so he can play either way (which I'm sure you probably know.)

[IlikeGOODguitarists]

Well...his V guitar is a perfect example of that...

[TheKidGuitarist]

He's left handed, he said so in Speed Kills #1.

[metallicarulestheday]

actually he is neither right or left handed so he said in his first instructional video he is ambidextrous since birth he never found sense in only using 1 hand for things which is true we grow up prioritizing in one thing .

[KH2R0xas]

You're wrong actually haha he's purely left handed.

[thetenfold]

No that's not why he can play fast. He said on his DVDs it doesn't matter. Just need practice.

[accurist94]

no its a secret which only some guitarists know called economy of motion which menas being able to get to as many notes as possible with very little movement of the hand, then by using economy of motion and knowing alot of scales and modes, conbing them together you can improvise or write music and it will be fast and good every time, but it takes lots of practice

[ptrafied]

alot of it just comes natural though

[mk3a2]

1:34 I knew he was waiting to do it!

[Lbdataz1469]

umm no you dumbshit his videos are not fake at all i went to one of his clinics, he's not a fake

[cfv22]

fastest player out there,could out shred them all,and he is not even my favorite.that said i luv him he is truly unreal.

[RevoMusic]

I really appreciate Micheal Angelo's performance, I think this guy deserve more media cover, he should make an alliance with a known artist to make a solo on a commercial song. This guy can inspire a whole new generation of guitarist, he's got an unmatched talent in writing and playing music!

[godlovedanielt]

Hope he can visit Taipei again

[doconer1]

Im gonna try to get a summer job so I can get his guitar. He is the fastest guitarist alive. I bet when he was born he came out with a guitar and was shredding. lol

[250BPMshred]

Michael Angelo is awesome!

[scottwill19]

this is who god wud go to if he wanted guitar lessons

and no hendrix sux donkey ballz

his guitar playing wasnt even that good

[DanielR1007]

Why compare two guitarrists playing two different genres?!

No sense.

They are both great.

[3eyedkalmah]

i agree

[woodyhaddade]

well some people say that batio is all full of shit and all of his videos aren't real , they're fake and they record them faster than the real version is that right ? please give me an answer

[dmarks1]

There are many people that have checked out these videos that were at this July 9th show in Southern California. It would be ridiculous to post some kind of sped up bogus video when there were witnesses at the event. This is real. No camera tricks or overdubbing the audio. What you see is what you get.

[jinmnstr]

well i just wana say hi

[doconer1]

Do you know if he is coming anywhere near New York? I would love to go to one of his shows.

[dmarks1]

I assume that he'll be in NY sometime this year. Check his website: angelo com

[doconer1]

Ok thanks.

[thetenfold]

Batio doesn't speed up his videos or his music.

[xjaguar13]

LMAO!!! Batio speeds up his videos? erm explain how he speeds up his playing at his clinics then? Please?

[retrogadepeace]

strange...

makes me want to practice harder

[Coogg1376]

Hendrix i guess since he said it in order. But Just cuz Batio is better that dont mean Hendrix isnt great, cuz he great!

[maximumcriminalz]

yeah i agree

[Emblemz]

He's a Genius!!

[AbudaskoKhaspion]

HE ROCKS!

[discipleofhoudini]

metal method vids are amazing , you guys should all get one

[Siler1016]

Aye they are hard and will make you a little pissed off but the harder stuff you try to learn the better overall you become. I think every player should have at least one of his DVD's they are amazing.

[Rhoadshero5]

MAB is influenced by Randy Rhoads just putting that out there

[dmarks1]

This song, "Hands Without Shadows" is taught in Michael Angelo Batio's instructional DVD "Speed Lives 2" which is available at metalmethod com

[noxerator]

i surrender:P he is awesome mab u r god!

[Mefodiy8]

круто!

[JoshW272727]

u can't compare hendrix to batio... their not even remotely similar

[Coogg1376]

Batio=x1000,000,000Hendrix

[jakobssonee]

comparing batio to hendrix is like comparing a car and a marshmallow

[Emblemz]

hey dont forget hendrix is a legend u kno T_T

[edvhwg]

very cool!

[skaterdylan101]

anybody know wha amps those are in the back?

[1blaseblase1]

he likes marshall

[thetenfold]

Marshall amps.

[extremelythirsty]

batio rules

[gitanomestizo]

amazing guitar player, i like watch his videos.

[sonsofplunder45]

Wow, There will never be anyone as good as MAB....

Everytime i watch this...it inspires me to keep practicing my guitar...although i know ill never be as good as him...i still get inspired everytime i watch this

[demonholocaust101]

this is the first time i've seen him use the MAB1 armorflame live before...he better use it more often...that fukr was custom made!!!

[skovol007]

I can't decide who's faster, MAB or John Pertrucci.(Kicking myself in the butt for not seeing either one when they had clinics nearby)

[vanbatio]

MAB is faster than pertrucci... john is overrated

[TheKidGuitarist]

Batio. Definitely.

[rippinkorpse]

hes fucking coming to LA, fuck yeah cant wait!

[GnRwhore]

is he using a killswitch?

[skarbu]

yeah he always does something, and presses something...? Too much gain maybe if he just stops?

[acidmanlight]

HD　:)

[doconer1]

I would love to go to one of his shows. Is he comming anywhere near New York anytime soon?

[stugoodwin]

awesome. id say he is the one that made me appreciate proggressive rock and sweeping.

[jkdsdmf]

will this concert be released on dvd?

[dmarks1]

Yes, it will probably be available early next year.

[Tanimeric]

guitar god man too fast

[JACKSONAXER]

It don't get any better than MAB on the axe folks .

[bobcat2307]

so uhh...who here agrees that michael angelo can beat slash in a guitar battle??

[fender132435]

me.

[sk8erboirobrob]

me :)

[Ko252]

are you kidding me? you're comparing a god with a mere man. Slash simply cant win.

[slyneph]

Man i he is the best , i went to seem and get his autograph on 12th last month , i talked to him and he is such a cool person

[Lubial]

Amazing

[MrGagu]

wow

he is the best guitar player i had ever seen

[luisfelipe701]

michael angelo batio is a guitar god \../

he made everything stay easy

[McHalo31]

he's the god of solos

[fenixricardez]

michael angelo next clinic tuesday 9 in universal city west la music at 700pm, you have to be there

[commentingaccount101]

*Translation*

Michael Angelo Batio is a very good guitarist! The guy is a freaking god! Mainly because of his astounding knowledge of music theory. Not just because he can shred like a monkey on ecstasy (that's a compliment)

[AtheistThrasher]

yeah me too

[gdr567]

me to man, so his dvd does a step by step of these songs?

[dmarks1]

Yes, Speed Lives 2 teaches "Hands Without Shadows" note-for-note. The version that he teaches is the other "Hands Without Shadows" video that I posted. Search on "Hands Without Shadows - Michael Angelo Batio." Within a few days I'm going to post a few samples from the lesson so you can see how well it's explained. Of course it's difficult to play it as fast as he does but it still will improve your technique by learning it at a slower tempo. With time you can gradually increase speed.

[Matjex]

sounds evil!

[arcanghel03]

this great is , i think that is a part of his profession

[Cryptreaper]

this guy is like the chuck norris of guitar shreddin!

[darkshadowofhell9643]

oh! i waited for this! i love it!

[KrazyKali69]

I like that Dean sig,that is one sweet mofo! great performance by MAB as usual. :)

[ulianovis]

todayyyyyyyyyyyyyy i want that

[Cedrictheheadric]

Michael is a great guitarist i own speed kills 1,2,3 and speed lives and cant wait for the new one to come out in 2 days

your song's such a challenge mike, we'll see about that

maniacal laugh - hah hah hah hah ;)

[MortaniusTaijou]

man batio is too much man! watching him makes me feel like I don't know how to play and I've been shredding clean for 5 years and playing for 9!

He is too good!!

[Janiski]

We will see when he starts to slow down, this far hes only become faster and faster... And the playing is almost studio quality everytime, just amaizing.

[danielyeh]

almost? lol i can barely tell the difference

[bobbydesoto]

Its like seeing and hearing the great God Of Shredding do what he does best and that is kicking ass, He's the MAD GOD OF SPEED,SPACE, AND TIME!

[thegrimreaperrocks]

awesome man

[MustaineMan17]

awesome for a while there you were not posting new video's and recently you have been posting out the wazzoo i like all the new vids keep it up

[dmarks1]

I have about four more videos to post then things will slow down for awhile.

[MABvideo]

Nice use of the new widescreen feature. Great video and performance. MAB uses this song for a lot of his soundchecks before a show.

[pol315]

This man is the sole person who can defeat Chuck Norris.

We will soon be saved!!

Praise be to MAB!

[bongowongowongo]

this guy can play guitar at the speed of light and darkness combined
