What do you guys think of this video of me playing guitar?

I hope you don't mind watching...

Watch if you are into more slower but still good music

Watch if you are into speed andmore intense music(starts out slow, but speed is gathered)

If you have a youtube account, or you're already logged in, I would REALLY appreciate it if you would rate them. But of course I can't force you.

Are you sitting cross legged? haha.

anyway, you are really good. Better than any guitarist I know.

Actually no. Heh,It does appear that way, but I have a foot stool. I know that sounds weird, but anybody who plays Classical guitar will say they need one.

That's really good man! You seem like you're very focused and disciplined when it comes to guitar. You have good technique and your picking is very consistant. Do you only focus on classical music, or do you enjoy playing other genres as well?Headbanger88

Heavily focused on Classical, but I used to play Rock music. I'll occassionally pick up the electric. Rock music is my second favorite genre.

Woah, you're good. Learn some Chili Peppers, White Stripes, and Muse. :)

I'll be your best friend.

That's cool. I'm heavily influenced by bossa. Here's a vid of me playing a new tune I'm writing, tell me what ya think of it. Seeing some of the videos that some of the gamespot users put up of themselves playing inspired me to do the same, although mine has terrible quality http://www.gamespot.com/users/Headbanger88/video_player?id=JiA3n2H95b8MvzTb. I'll try to put more up but I hate recording myself. It makes me very self-concious, moreso than playing in front of people and the playing comes off unnaturally because I'm thinking about when I'm going to screw up rather than focusing on the music itself.

I really enjoyed that. I've always loved that Latin Jazz feel. I recommend maybe getting a good recording device or something, and playing those chords, and mix it in with another guitar playing lead. To me that would sound great. The chords really flowed good and I thought it was very enjoyable.

As of now, the only way I can really record well is through guitarport onto Wavelab. I used to do that years ago when I was playing rock music, which was very easy since I could just plug my electric in. I don't really have the means to record my classical guitar other than with my crappy webcam. I could record this stuff with an electric but honestly it sounds a lot better with a nylon-string guitar. You just can't get the right tone and depth with an electric guitar. As for writing leads, I do mess around with it a bit. There's a nice browser app called "Guitar Jam Machine" that I like to play with to do that http://www.all-guitar-chords.com/guitar_chords_jam.php.
