I....don't understand?

Small white child vs. 80's guitar man in a gospel and soul club?

 

[mastag]

watch the movie.

do it.

or wiki it. I don't care.

I'd say they about tie. Steve Vai can't act, but Ralph Macchio can't play.

 

[Tarkus]

The funny thing is that Vai plays alot of techinally harder things before the paganinni's 5th caprice bit, and still he can't outplay the kid. Movies ftw

But it's cool nontheless

 

[Azner]

Hmmm

Can't find that beast and the harlot solo.

Nevermind that. I havent watched karate kid.

 

[Muffin Man]

Can't find that beast and the harlot solo.

Why would you be looking for it..?

 

[Seppo]

that's some bad ass arpeggios by karate kid

 

[Tarkus]

yeah, he also slides to notes that would require a 27th fret(24th plus bend), even though that guitar only has 22. plus, you can't bend with a slide

[Pesmerga]

Wasn't this a movie?

With, like, actors, and sound overlays?

 

[Seppo]

All of them except for the slide parts in the beginning. Those were played by Ry Cooder.

best part is the stereotypical tough guy at the beginning
