Dear Premiere, please start consulting with Rick and only post stuff that he deems worthy. In fact, please post videos of Rick's lessons--he's apparently above this lesson and therefore believes it should not be posted for others to learn and enjoy. He's apparently some kind of guitar god so why don't you make it all about him? Sounds like he doesn't like Guitar Squid because Guitar Squid makes fun of him. http://www.guitarsquid.com/Latest/guitar -universe-venn-diagram.html

Rick had utterly no idea what he was talking about. I believe being negative is just a thing of his. These are some of the most revered licks in guitar. The list of famous guitarists who use these licks and this technique is far too long too list. Rick, don't turn into a pointlessly negative putz.

I have to agree with Spanky. I've been playing for about 4 years and I'm always looking for stuff like this to add to my limited "arsenal". I can't play it like Doug but it's nice to slow it down and get used to the fingering methods. I think Doug pointed it out more than enough that these examples are to be thrown in so as not to put your audience to sleep rather than playing them by themselves to impress your friends who don't play guitar.

Rick, I disagree. Its about a method of repeats to be used as one tool among your whole arsenal of lead playing and was listed as intermediate, not advanced soloing. It is not a show off tool to be used in a music store. There are MANY well known guitarist who use this method to much acclaim, and I actually teach some of these same licks to my students. This instructor was well spoken, played it well, explained it well, even showed the tab and gave some nice pointers of how to include these among your soloing. Surely you didn't think this was a set solo to be used in a song just as he showed it? Take the technique, front load it/back load it, change it up, add to it, slow it down, speed it up, change the attack, etc. Its just a method of playing that can be incorporated into lifeless solos to spice it up a bit and I think more people should try it. What is crappy, annoying and monotonous is people playing the minor pentatonic scale up and down just hitting notes in key but without telling any story or providing any dynamics.

I have played these licks for many years--for those who have not, it is a very good lesson, by an excellent instructor. Thanks Doug and PG.

Sorry, boys and girls. That was nothing more than an exercise in crappy, annoying monotony. Not even fit for a music store show-off. PG, please don't morph into another Guitar Squid.
