Oh and one more thing guys... I've come to terms with the speed thing.

I'm just not the kinda guy who likes to show off that much. If I should someday get to that point, I don't think I'm gotta spend all my time wanking crazy guitar riffs.

I've always considered my self a Mike Campbell kinda guy in the sense, that it's better to have few notes say a lot than a lot of notes say little.

Take for example Marty Stuart. You can just tell that Marty is a monster guitar player. But does he show off and play sixteenth triplet crazy runs? No. He plays as much as he needs to. Marty has balance.
