The bass player must feel really inadequate.

No, but I bet Joe Wright can.

Ive seen this guy play before with his band "Nitro". A friend had seen em the night before by accident and told me I had to check em out as they were playing the same small club the next night as well..
It was quite humrous in a Spinal Tap sort of way.
Michaelangelo had three full marshall stacks in a tiny tiny bar, he had a doublenecked heart shaped guitar and did the whole playing both necks at once thing. The singer , Jim Gillette...his gimmick was that he could shatter crystal with his voice. He demonstrated this for us onstage by placing a goblet on a small pedestal and then screaching until it shattered. Hilarious. After the show the bass player showed me his tanning salon card. He said the band all had these cards so that whatever city they were in while on tour they could go maintain their fake tans.

Micheal Angelo did a clinic sponsored by Randal Amps at a local music store in the early 90s.
He played that double neck to tracks and it was awesome
to watch. He seemed like a very nice guy.
He didn't play upside down that day. Must be a new trick.
Someone on YouTube asked about his guitar case.
It's a rectangle, as the guitar is two mirrored halfs that bolt together.
What really impressed me was he said was living with Katy Segal (Al Bundy's Peg on TV). |

Say what you will about him but Mike "Michael Angelo" Batio is over 50 and still doing what he loves. I used to know Mike pretty well when he was teaching guitar lessons in my home town. He may not look it in the video but he is about the nicest guy you would ever want to meet. Very kind, generous and obviously extremely focused. And how about that tip of the hat to the Allman Brothers playing Duane's and Dickey's parts at the same time?

I actually have a lot of admiration for some of the musicality of this stuff. Like anything, there's gradations - the best of these guys, like Paul Gilbert and Steve Vai, have a good understanding of song structure & creating tension. I love zippy classical music, and the only people I've ever heard of who can play Paganini's Violin Caprices on guitar are classical virtuoso Eliot Fisk, and the metal guys like Jason Becker and Vai. YOU try it.... I wish I had a 29-fret guitar: Speed Kills
This is actually a pretty good song: Rain Forest
I love YouTube: Brian Setzer does Atkins Style |
