ok so John Petrucci or this guy?

[MyShawnLaneVideos]

@y00ked John Petrucci would probably say "this guy". ;-)

There's a video interview on here where John Petrucci mentions that he took some dvd's of Shawn with him on tour to try and learn something from them.

@MyShawnLaneVideos what interview is that?

[MyShawnLaneVideos]

@Kingding6  I've just posted a link to it on the info section of my main channel page here! ;)

This sort of reminds me of the sped up playing from John Petrucci's "Psycho Excercises" xD

[MyShawnLaneVideos]

LOL!!

[TrevorWilsonHimself]

people watching this thinking this is Shawn lane at his peak of playing you are mistaken He can go much further than this and i have heard it!!

This video will cause earths gravitational field to deplete but i have heard Shawn Lane punching a whole in time it's self.

[Scoffman5150]

I'm speechless!! This guy is a guitar Virtuoso, with a capital V!

Shawn reminds me a lot of coltrane, they were both monsters in their own right on the quest for absolute spirituality. The point of these guitar solos wasnt to show off or shred. It was more to achieve a higher musical intensity, listen to "My Favourite things live at the Olatunji Concert" That was probably where shawn was aiming.

I just had a picture in my mind of someone who had never heard of Shawn before and was maybe just a student at MI went to see the concert late and walked in on that. Can you imagine?

i havent heard anyone play with such accuracy although to me it doesnt sound much melodic but this guy is Great !

[Pendrakulya]

I admire his playing, but I can't stand his music.

Words cannot to begin to explain this. This performance is beyond all that. Just 1 little phrase of this is more intelligent then all the words a person could come up with in a life time. All the guitarist that ever have lived cannot begin to dream of having a vocabulary to play like this. Holdsworth is the only one that could I think that could at least make an attempt at least. All others would just cry.

[TheNeverendingfire]

Nobody place like this guy! out of this world!

boring
