He shreds, but still manages to keep it emotional.. he just stole my breath with the improv..

I know he's cheating a bit by dumpening the strings but it doesn't take away anything from his creativeness!

Damn nice!
Thats some nice tasteful playing. I like that he doenst go overboard with showing off, just keeps the amount of technical showing to a just right amount.

Great man!!

He is Italian. His technical abilities are flawless, but he had just killed Little Wing in my opinion.
Much more he's incredibly arrogant, really really arrogant.
If you wanna see an incredibly talented guitarist digit FABRIZIO LEO on youtube.
His technically ability are simply insane.

I think he is an incredible player that I have a lot of admiration for - its sad to hear that he is arrogant though Danilo - still he is great. I can think of a few young players I have met that suffer from that same problem

You are right Nick... it's horrible to play so good but at the same time being so arrogant, I don't know why. For me there's ever someone better than you, just listen to some famous guitarist to understand that you are just a little guitarist in a world of great musicians. I had seen a video of Brett Garsed playing live...it's incredible his skill and taste, and it's beautiful and incredible his shy face at the end of the song while the people applause him...Brett rules!!

Very true! there is no excuse for arrogance - confidence is good but arrogance is bad... the problem is it can be easy to confuse the two!
Allan Holdsworth is another guy who is humble - I went to a gig and it was incredible! but after the gig he stood at the door outside apologizing to everyone! - he believed his performance was terrible.

Allan stood at the door outside apologizing everyone...I have no word...I would pay to see him...even if he plays drums...

What makes you say that he is arrogant?

Posted by: Danilo Capezzuto Apr 2 2008, 04:32 PM

Because I saw some spoken videos...and in those videos he had said much arrogant things.

Well I don't mind people being arrogant, after all, it will only hurt them! I just look at the facts, yes he's an incredible guitarist, but it's also a fact that he didn't succeed much in the music world, I'm guessing the arrogance is one of the reasons for it.

As long as it's not hurting his creativeness I can live with it

Truly I have nothing against him. He is so talented and gifted, if you search on you tube can find some videos about 8 fingers tapping...he is truly amazing in this technique. But I don't like the way he talk about himself. That' s just my opinion!
Long life to him and his music!
