Mind if I ask how old you are? Most of my guitar heros are dead now. I’m only 66 and I have been inspired by you, my friend. I pick up new stuff like a proverbial sponge. Give me 2 months and I’ll be playing the harmonies to your solos. We will collaborate on some meaningful music in the future…….providing my health holds out……unfortunately I am in the late stage of COPD and my passing could take place at any time. The energy you provide will help sustain me in the present. I do however wonder about the future …………..

The real impressive thing about these videos isn’t the fact that you can actually play something like this, it’s that you have the ability to think of and write complex riffs in the first place. Writer’s block is a bigger enemy than any lack of playing capability

[@McSaggerson]

@@thehashslingingslasher1239 I'm not sure what you mean by that. I only make social observations and I always think it's funny when people ask for tabs. You'll have to explain what gatekeeping is in the context in which you're using it and why your reply was funny to you. I'm missing something.

Polyphia have done a great job in infecting new generation of guitar player with their music. The sound, the phrase, and the spirit.

[@matthewtetrick4475]

It was not Polyphia. Most of these techniques and phrasings started with Zappa, Vai, and Al Di Meola. Prog bands are just now understanding why they make sense and how to use these techniques in their own musical compositions. Polyphia popularized fusion mixed with dive bombs and harmonics, and that's about it. Personally, bands like Caligula's Horse, and Twelve Foot Ninja revitalized the interest for me, and years before the prog/fusion scene lit up. Plini, Polyphia, Intervals, Animals As Leaders, Arch Echo, Owane; they all became popular in the metal world around the same time, have toured and jammed together, and are at the forefront of modern virtuoso, but they did not start the trend by any means. In fact, like myself, many of the musicians in the list above had not even touched an instrument, or were born yet, when Zappa and friends were breaking this new ground.

I purchased the albums and tabs based on this one song. So there you go. It's absolutely stellar mate.
