Smoke on the Water...pls. respond with YOUR version

(first of all, for those who don't know me, I'm totally JOKING when I say "I just want to see who can play this better than me"...I fully realize, without question, that ANYONE on YouTube can play this better than me! lol I'm a music promoter and artist, NOT a musician.)

Hi, I'm at the very beginning of my guitar playing journey. I attempt to play the intro riff from Smoke on the Water, which I learned from this YouTube video:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EorPLmKS-Y0

Please don't go into a long diatribe about how Ritchie Blackmore plays it differently...I know this, and I'm not trying to play like Ritchie Blackmore, and the video above doesn't teach it the same way Ritchie plays it. And I don't even play it the way the guy from the video teaches it. So put that in your pipe and smoke it ;)

Since Smoke on the Water is one of the very first songs many guitar players learn, I invite you to post your own version of Smoke on the Water as a video response. Also, you need not only be a GUITAR player...I invite ALL musicians, no matter what instrument you play, to post a video response of you playing Smoke on the Water.

I look forward to all comments and responses. Be kind...and remember, don't laugh in front of your computer, because I'll know :) Yes, that's right...I'm talking to YOU! But please DO have a laugh at my outtakes :p That's why I included them.

I love you ALL!

Hugs,
Joy xo
