Have you encountered guitarists who are a bit too comfortable with their abilities? How do you deal with success and stay humble? Give us your two cents!

We talked for a short time and after he walked Away my wife looks at me smilling and says "you loved that , didn't you", a -duh !

It got even better when he would say everyone else kept moving time. In his head 3 other people had to be in the wrong time because it would be impossible for him to be out of time.

I hate to break the news, but when you can play over a certain bpm you can't be wrong anymore - the laws of physics forbid it.

I must question the validity of such a list Mr. Vai is among the best players still alive IMHO. They are completely wrong, but that's one reason why I shared the link, because I was curious to see what you guys think Steve is one of the nicest guys I met and more, my good friend who toured with him, told me he is an excellent professional and nice guy to work with and he really knows how to handle a situation. For instance, on his birthday, they were in Moscow and the orchestra did not want to perform due to the bad accommodation conditions and he really knew how to talk to them all and convince them to perform, not by forcing them, because he did not have the means, but by being a very nice guy You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.
