Dislikes are mostly from the newbies who gets frustrated. I`m a noob but I put a thumb up but I know how it works :) because sometimes I get frustrated too if a lesson is a bit hard to follow and I sometimes downvote a video but than I calm down and come back and upvote it. :)

Solid gold, Matt! I've watched this and Part 1 before, but wasn't getting much out of it because I was still struggling to get the feel of playing with a slide. With that finally conquered I was able to watch and listen without that distraction and you really paved the way for me to get off to a flying start on slide with these videos. Thanks a ton! I've wanted to learn this for years.

Matt, just caught the Part 1 & 2 Killer Slide. Mate, this is just what the budding blues players need. You put it together really well and it gives a whole range of goodies one can take away a practice.....Look forward to a lot more....And the funny stuff just gives the lesson that relaxed feeling, that I believe blues is all about. Rock on.
