Default Think you can play?

I am a guitar player, but when I see something like this, I wonder if I have a shot at being a real musician. Rachmaninoff had a handspan of twelve inches. As a 6' 6" stud, I have to wonder about the size of his junk...I think of a Pringles can. Anyway, here is a vid of a talented young lady who can play one of his songs. It is amazing. What do you think?

The Rach...

I am pretty sure i could beat Kobe Bryant in a game of 1-1 before i could learn to play music like that. That is some real talent.

I tryed to play the guitar. I got pissed off and impatient after about ten minutes and gave the guitar and amp to my nephew... I stick to just lifting weights as a hobby.

Creepy because it was madness!

Wow! Never heard that before, very cool man. You could definitely see how the composer kind of demanded this shared insanity with the musician through his music, and meeting that insanity meant a beautiful reward in the end. Was the proverbial, "leading down the garden path..." without turning a hose on someone, instead someone turnsa hose on you!

I loved it! Thanks man... gonna go surf YouTube for a while...
