Default Indeed he is

I saw him last year here in Dallas and his technical playing skills are absolutely amazing.

The whole bucket and mask thing is kind of strange to watch - there he is wailing away playing some 300 note per minute thing and there is no expression. Normally you see the guy concentrating and 'getting into it'. Who knows what's going on behind that mask. I think it adds to the "mechanical" feeling that some of the super technical stuff he plays seems to have but in an odd way it actually enhances the experience.

This is from that concert and I was standing righ behind the guy recording this...

He ain't no MacAlpine, nor Malmsteen, nor Lynch.

Pretty good...odd.
