Tons of guys can play really fast ****ty. Kinda like the guy that floors his gas pedal and ends up hitting something. But there's a ****load of talent that goes into being able to play really fast and still make a musical statement.

Steve Morse
Allan Holdsworth
John McLaughlin
Guthrie Govan
Ron Thal
Shawn Lane
Paul Gilbert
Paco DeLucia
Albert Lee
Angel Romero

And hundreds more. It's late and I know you guys are just trying to yank my chain, but I've spent thousands of hours practicing on how to play really fast while staying musical. Good night boys.
