Riffs: Fastest Guitarist, Computer Keyboard Rock, Fastfinger on the Road, Satriani in Games

	World's Fastest Guitarist? iGuitar World The fastest guitarist in Pakistan, Raha Hasan, has set his sights on the Guinness World Record for fastest guitarist in the world. The article includes a video of him in action.
	Computer Keyboard as a Tool of Rock from Play-Gadgets.com What do a few Georgia Tech nerds do when learning real guitar is too hard and Guitar Hero is too easy? They turn keyboards into guitars. The keyboards control software, which pumps out guitar sounds through a computer. The video of the band playing "Hotel California" is a must-watch... if only for a few seconds.
	Mr. Fastfinger Hits the Streets from Brave Words and Bloody Knuckles You may recall Mr. Fastfinger from a previous riff. Well, the shred show is hitting the road to jam in Japan, as well as working on a CD release.
	Satriani Lends His Shred to Games from Gamersmark Sick of the kids singing "Green Grass and High Tides" and "Number of the Beast," just because they're featured in Rock Band and Guitar Hero? No fear, Satriani to the rescue. "Satch Boogie" and "Surfing With the Alien" are now licensed to the games, so they might be humming a different tune soon.
