Location: Tychy, Poland | i've listened to all the tracks from e-tunes, and to be honest i can't understand talking about how fast he is.
I can play that fast and and even faster.
(this one was recorded on electric guitar, but on O i can play nearly as fast as here.)
break my fingers
and i still know 2 persons in my city that can play even faster. |

But it's unlikely your boy is the equal of Davy Graham or any of a dozen other obscure guitar gods....the heavans, and the clubs, are full of them.
He'll have a better career being nice to everyone on the way up, because you meet all the same people on the way down. |

Location: SoCal | You guys are missing the whole point (and Heather missed it as well). It ain't a contest. It's a question of making good music. And like different guitars, it becomes a matter of ice cream....
Everybody's too caught up in who can play the fastest or the most technically perfect. It's a question of who can make music, and when it comes to that, there are no winners or losers.
Jeez, how many times do I gotta explain it to you people? |

Location: Budd Lake, NJ | When you're 20
.....you care what everybody thinks about you.
When you're 40
.....you don't care what anybody thinks about you.
When you're 60
.....you realize they weren't thinking about you
.....at all.
As I am much closer to 60 now than any of the other options, I realize that once this is read you will promptly cease to think about me, which is perfectly o.k.
Dualing guitars at 30 paces? Nah. Not here. But not because we're cowards, or technically incompetent, or can't sing or any other illogical conclusions. Basically, it's because those of us on the board who are good enough to go there don't have anything to prove, and those of us who aren't don't have anything to prove, either. (By the way, I am not one of the "good enough" ones, but that's o.k--it's people like me who provide contact for all those of you who are.) That's the beauty of this group--I have never been made aware of the fact that I'm not a really great picker or vocalist by those who are better than I, and I just hope that I will be able to encourage someone else along the way as they have me.
Just my two cents,
--Karen |

Location: west virginia | wow well put I was just keeping to myself cause really i lack talent in all areas lol and i dont feel i have a place to speak of who's good or bad.. I personally think everyone is unique in thier own way............ and no matter who it is somebody will love and somebody will hate thier music but thats the purpose of choice...if everyone like the same person the world would be dull .sorry if i dont make since but i think we all have our own taste thats the point of freedom... |

.....at all. Very similar to something an extremely wise man once tried, in vain, to get through my thick skull:
You wouldn't care so much about what other people think of you, if you realized how seldom they do. Several decades later, I realize how much he knows. With Father's Day coming up, I think I'll make it a point to tell him that. Again. |

Location: Nashville | Little Boy Jerrerson....your not going to hear his hand speed on the CD.He's just playing songs on there and not showing off.....I know he's many times faster if he wants to be......but he use's that speed in concerts , not on the CD.In his concert he said the CD was recorded only as a practice to hear the songs and be sure they were ready for concerts.....But He like the recording so he released it.I know it's raw and not recorded in a pro studio.But it's still every well done.Also I've Seen the speed,he's lighting fast.And he never has to touch an open string to do that.His lead scales are so fast he said in concert ,Why bother playing that fast.People won't hear it.It goes right by them. And I'd say he's right.He goes more for the touch.But tyrust me the speed to burn is there.His song.... ( Electric Son Rise ) song is not played fast at all.But I've heard it on radio before and I am sure that's what your talking about....if you think that's fast guess again...you have no idea of his speed....your talking out your hat....really.....He plays music,not speed.But he has the speed to play as fast as anyone world wide.No one in your city is faster, I'd bet on that !! So you are wrong there.Also I guess you guys are tired of hearing me talk.So I will leave this Ovation forum because that's what I feel is needed. You guys take care.I don't pull any punches and I can take it......But I am ruinning this area for you all.It's been fun anyways.
I won't be back to ruin this for you finger pickers......and I mean that in a nice way.That's the style you love.
Take Care bye sweeties...Heather4dd |

perhaps heather is actually "jordan rivers" in drag? |

But Jordan did tap into something (probably not Heather), maybe we ARE a little too closed minded about fast guitar playing and rock shredding metal licks. So, here you go boys. Light up a big fat doobie, turn down the lights and check THIS out ...
Choose Magic Carpet Tour, and then Lesson at the right. Make sure the sound is on.

Seriously Heather, nobody wants you to go. Just find something else to post about than Jordan Freaking Rivers! I'm not going to be presumptuous and use the words "nobody" or "we", I'll just speak for myself. I don't know who in the hell he is and I don't freaking care, or ever want to know.
He's your hero, and that's great. If I spent 12 pages of posts trying to ram MY guitar hero down everyones throat I'm sure I'd receive the same cold shoulder as you have.
I hope you don't leave, but if you do, thanks for some interesting banter.
