:shocked: Are you saying, that Eddie Van Halen played like a GIRL?? :yikes:
Seriously: she did knock that outta the park! :clap:

[ARtraveler]

I got a headache. :roflblack::roflblack: That said, the young lady has some very fine technique going on. She knows how to make that axe sing. :bowdown::bowdown::firstplace::firstplace:

[Bob Denman]

:agree: I wonder if she'll ever team up with Tal Wilkenfeld?
THAT would be a rockin' band! :bowdown::bowdown::bowdown:

[coz]

She was dead ON it. :thumbup:

[bmccaffrey]

AWESOME!!!!!!!!

[Chupaca]

She is good...as they say out west..better than snuff and not half as dusty...:2thumbs::clap:

[Rogue Hawk]

She does a rip from 30 years ago. Notice there are no great guitarists today to admire?

[Bob Denman]

I blame the short attention spans of the today's typical youth... :gaah:
Alvin Lee
Jeff Beck
Donald Rooser
Johnny Winter
Robin Tower
Yngwie Malmsteen
Joe Satriani
Malcolm Young
Tony Iommi

These guys worked hard for their craft, and are starting to lose the Battle with Time...

that lil gal has talent... but .. not my kind of music...

[SL Ken]

Did you watch any of the others that came up? OMG! What a talent.

[OJ UK]

Have to say I preferred her playing this:

Her accuracy on the fret board is amazing .......Yngwie would be proud!

I would guess that she's strung the guitar with 8s or 9s....or possibly even 7s a la Billy Gibbons!

[Bob Denman]

:shocked: Holy crap!!! :bowdown::bowdown::bowdown:
I kind of thought that Yngwie might have been one of the fastest...
She matches his best, and hits it cleaner! :firstplace: :clap::2thumbs:

[Bob Denman]

Yngwie's version... :bowdown:

I'm pretty sure Dave Gilmour will have appreciated this! Not only can she shred
but this French girl can also play with fire and passion!!:ohyea:

[cuznjohn]

i know a young lady that lives in florida that is self taught and is very good but not like this girl. a few years back after watching people play in a chat room i used to go into for music i got the urge to take lessons. i gave it up after a few weeks at 50 bucks an hour. i STUNK at it and couldn't get my fingers to work right. so now i have another dust collector in my house

[Bob Denman]

OJ,
Thanks for some "Numbness"... :D :thumbup:
I haven't heard ONE piece yet; that she didn't perform righteously! :bowdown:
Why couldn't she be about 10 years older? I'd point Sonny-Boy in her direction, and give him a shove! nojoke

[Bob Denman]
