Chris2112 Posted January 17, 2012 Posted January 17, 2012 This guy must go to some pretty crappy parties. Quote
arthurhenry Posted January 17, 2012 Posted January 17, 2012 Hmmm, a clip of Billy Sheehan doing exactly this has been on youtube for some time. Quote
TonyBones Posted January 17, 2012 Posted January 17, 2012 Thats not a party trick, a real party trick is being caught out at the start of Dakota (stereophonics) and playing through the whole song without spilling yer pint Ner! Quote

paul_5 Posted January 18, 2012 Posted January 18, 2012 That sort of thing would be most unwelcome at my kind of party - there's nothing more annoying than a four bar loop when you're trying to play Scrabble. Quote
soldersqueeze Posted January 18, 2012 Posted January 18, 2012 I've got the lick down, now I have to practice the pulsing head movements and punchably-smug facial expression. Quote
ojplaysbass Posted January 18, 2012 Posted January 18, 2012 i thought that was going to go somewhere...... apparently not. its probably a good vehicle for those starting out with solo techniques or 2 hand tapping..... but i thought he was going to do something amazing with the solo section! sigh....

Not much of a party trick if my friends kill me afterwards. Now that would be more interesting. Other than that i kinda liked his idea - just not that song.

Wrong notes galore. Still, it's not like I could play anything even remotely like that, my brain boggles just looking at it. Quote
