Hope U'al like it.

1) mad skill.
2) mad project.
3) mad recording technique.

The hand motions in between riffs made me laugh (in a good way). That you can do this and invoke a smile shows confident playfulness, which is verily deserved.

Gosh, so much skill on this forum. For me guitar is a tool to compliment my singing. Pieces like yours show that the guitar can very much fly solo and express. Well, in your hands anyway

Thank you so much Sal. Man I wish I could sing. It is all just fun. As long as we have good health and possibility to play and create.

I madly got inspired by your kind feedback

Hi Farhad!
You are a natural born guitar killer !!!!
I love your playing, it seems to be so easy when you do it!
I also really like your showmanship! Your´re a star!
I honestly think that you dont need to sing to put up a great act, but if you wish to sing,
take a few lessons, you might find a good song voice hidden if you try!
Thanks for the video, again and again you do really great things!
(by the way I am a professional TVdirector, videos are my trade so I can really vote for
that this one was really good. Clever idea, brilliant performance!)
cheers
Otto
