    =)) Just a joke) Actually I've been listeting to Carl Verheyen for a long time, and my favorite concert is Live in LA! drums are awesome, the bass is deep, and Carl's melodic lines are fascinating. I liked his video school "Intervallic Rock" very much. I like Carl Verheyen as a man, he is very simple in his conversation with people, he is not arrogant as some other guitarists... Also, he can TALK and to GIVE an information about what he wanted to say for a people who are sitting with their guitars while watching his videos))) And you know guys, I laughed so much when Carl called shredders like "Monkeys in a space suit" =) That was really funny))) Carl is very good person, brilliand teacher and awesome guitar player. I just LOVE him very much as no one else!)))

    No shouts!?? Frickin' criminal. Verheyen's an amazing talent. Slang Justice just kills me every time, and that's just a showcase for *one* of the styles he plays flawlessly. Hats off.
