No no i banned you for being a **** ;) nothing about you killing me.... i;m used to that ;)
 
Fantastic matey! Not just the talent of being able to play like that, but also being able to learn a song that complex and getting through it all in 1 take.
 
I'm impressed. I've been trying to learn it and haven't got anywhere compared to you. Seriously impressed.
 
Great work! Really great fingering

I'm interested, is there some kind of Cannon D competition going on? I've seent he Jerry C vid...is everyone now doing their own versions?
 
That was very impressive, and I swear i'm going to nail that song one day.
AoH, how long have you been playing? / Have you ever had lessons or anything?

There is this thread here -

started by DMP because he was sick to death of people claiming they could play the track. ArmyOfHarmony isn't one of those people but has come forward and achieved it majestically. I await the other Guitar Warriors who did make such claims even if it is only the first 40 bars etc.

Exactly - the Canon Rock thread that surfaced a few weeks ago had plenty of comments basically stating that it was easy/boring/childs play so dmpoole called them out. Whilst many people have submitted good material to dmpoole, ArmyofHarmony is so far the only person to have had a stab at the actual track that started the debate. What I find interesting is that the Jerry C vid seemed to attract a lot of dismissive comments whereas this one is full of nothing but praise :confused:

ArmyofHarmony, love the vid! For me, whilst a touch more ragged it seemed to have more "oomph" to it than the Jerry C version posted before. Well done.
 
That was excellent, i enjoyed watching the video. Inpsired me to have a stab at that song, lets just say it's going to take me a while to learn that!
 
hey thanks for all the replies,

Well i saw the jerry C vid quite a while ago, never thought about covering it... but then about a month ago my mates at uni started going on about it... i gave it another listen and thought hmmm i should learn this, since i basically never learn any songs.

I had lessons through school, but not really in technique... really just turned up and played Oasis etc... never really practiced outside of lessons until later.




and for those that are interested i use an Ibanez RG1550 and a v-amp 2 (into my soundcard)
 
Top stuff, that is some seriously good playing there

Your style of playing really reminded me of Nuno Bettencourt (he of Extreme fame if anyone hasn't heard of him), and your sound is very nice too :)

Well done, you've proved there are people on these forums who can back up their claims :D
 
I think hes playing in a Funk sort of band called Population 1... but that might be the name of their album, not sure.

Actually i think hes in an even newer band now... cant remember.

I think Nuno is embarrassed of his shred history... so i heard anyway... shame, cause it rocked
