Some of those old guys can really hammer it. Willie Nelson comes to mind, saw him on Austin City Limits a few years back and that guy can just *WAIL*.

I remeber I "bought" a ukulele for my Pappy when I was a kid but he couldn't play it cause he had arthritis. So when I started to learn how to play I'd down tune and play "tropical metal" on it. I think he would've enjoyed it...he was the most badass person I ever met. <3 Cool video too :)

82 years, yeah that's about how long it would take me to play like that. Is that misplaced Eb still considered a bum note when you are 82 or lets just not mention it. I bet he wishes he had been playing all his life now instead of switching from drums at 80 ;) :D :squirrel:

#8 46 years and you're not even half as good as this guy? are you holding it the right way up? what about the guitar? I've been playing around twenty years and I think I could take him & you obviously >:)

#8 Although you may be better than you are giving yourself credit for, but assuming what you say is true, you'll be almost as good as him when you're 109 :P

Only one way to settle this. Judge-Jake, upload a video of yourself playing the same riff within the next 48 hours so we can compare side-by-side. This old man is smooth, I would love to know some of his backstory. #9 if your as good as him you can PM me some of your backstory as well (after we have seen the video to compare). O:)

I've been getting some weird behaviour with the video player and I was wondering if anyone else has.
The videos autoplay but the click to play symbol shows on the screen and the play button on the player shows a triangle as if it isn't playing.
I've no idea why it might be. It isn't terribly serious as I just have to click on the screen to get rid of the message, just a little annoying.

Yes #13, I have the same thing happening here too, and I also click it away :)
