HMM..."liemgonnashred"??? I DON'T GET IT!!
###########################

Well, actually.. it's not really that important.

Liem (林) : My Family name .. well, actually it should be written "Lin" instead of "liem". And it should be read "Leem".. confusing..??? :) that's why I told ya, it's not really that important.. :D

The word "Gonna Shred" means Going to (I'm sure you know it.. :p) Shred.. which means, I'm still not a shredder yet.. :)

but that "Shred" thing actually is my first connection into the Guitar World.. that's because of Yngwie Malmsteen I play the electric guitar right now.. but still, I couldn't play any of yngwie's song perfectly complete.. lol

WHY DO YOU PLAY THE GUITAR??
###########################

Yeah.. Why?? To be honest, I never dream to be a guitarist before. As a matter of fact, I always wanted to be a Rock Singer. Just like my favorite singer, Axl Rose (GN'R). But I found out that I'm not really good in singing. I mean it's OK to be a backing vocals, but to be a lead singer.. hmm... I don't think so.. :D

so I need something except singing but still ROCK!! and The only thing that I had in my mind is "Guitar".. and fortunately, a few months later, I found out Yngwie's song. and surely, it changed my mind about how supposed he played the violin-things with his guitar?? (I'm still a newcomer at that time :D.. Yes I know it, by using the delay, but still, I can't play as great as him.. without a doubt.. :p)... and the way he play the guitar was really a new thing to me at that time..

So, that's why I pick Guitars...

ANYTHING SPECIAL ABOUT GUITAR COVER??
###########################

To me, doing a guitar cover is the way to express ourself. Before I joined in Youtube, I've seen a lot of Guitar Cover channels in youtube guitar cover. Sometimes, we often find someone who is 'less than perfect' in bringing a guitar cover. Or even, it is still far from perfect.

It is a 'must' for the more skilled players, to give a feedback that can help our friends so that he can play better in the future. But sometimes I'm disappointed, if someone who is more expert (I'll be more extremely disappointed, if the one who mocked is actualy people who can't do anything), but always mockin' to someone, who often simply say "YOU SUCK!" or other insulting words. Of course we know, by issuing these words, it won't make any change to our friends.

I remembered, when I registered an account in Youtube for the first time, I hope I could find some tips & tricks about playing the guitar, either directly (communicate with the guitarist) or indirectly (just watching their video). To me, We shouldn't waste our life just to show off our ability. Your abilities will be judged, of course, but your ethics & manners will be more appreciated by another people.

Talk about this. It made me think about the wise words, "The sky lies above us" that it means, "Do not ever think that you are the better one, because in fact, there are still many people better than yourself out there"

SO, DO YOU HAVE SOME TABS OR MAKING ANY TABS??
###########################

You know, I never use any tabs.. I'll do them all by ears.. (maybe because sometimes the tabs makin' my head dizzy,.. and it also took a lot of time to make a tab..)

So.. really sorry for not being able to provide anything about the tabs..
