But how will u learn if u start by trying to make your own song, I mean doesnt every1 practice other songs to learn. I think its very hard to write own music, and something like this....I think theres nothing wrong with covers, people just like to show there talents.

watch blue bear by don ross and then tell me they are not the same quality

One thing I have always noticed. I love listening to these guys but the one thing that tends to bother me is not the fact that people post covers of their songs, but I only wish they would take the time rather than learning the songs, to come up with their own material. That is what people like Ciluzzi, Mckee, etc. all do. Granted it is good to learn them for inspiration, listen to them for style, but only learning covers of other guitarists will never help you enhance your own creativity.

That slapping on the strings is.. insane!

yeah I agree with you there.In my opinion these guitarplayers shouldn't be compared anyway, for the obvious reasons that you were able to point out so well. Just enjoy the music :)

Just my opinion as well, but I don't think it would be accurate to say that Mckee or Ross don't have "near as much style or originality" as this guy. This guy's originality is just that... it pertains to him. So it will obviously be different than theirs. I think you meant to say, "in my opinon...etc."

The tuning for this song is CGDGCD. I bought the tabs a couple of days ago. Get ready to be frustrated. This song is way harder than it looks. The percussive taps he does every quarter note are nearly impossible. As far as Candyrat Records goes I would put this guy and Robert Taylor at the top of the heap. Andy McKee and Don Ross are obviously good but they don't have near as much style and originality.

Wow...two songs going at once here.
