Why do you play so many different ways with your hands or why did you come up with it? Was it to exercise your brain to keep it in shape?
Thanks
Brad ;D

I think he means righthanded, lefthanded, righthanded Criss-Cross, lefthanded Criss-Cross, over-under etc. Mike just wanted to be different and he didn't want to burn or breakguitars ;D (ok that's the short, short, short version ;D) Welcome aboard skullplayer  (can You play guitar with Your skull ;D) |

He explains the over under reason on speed lives. "Jimi hendrix, walks up to an amp and sais, i dont like you amp, *whack whack whack* then he pours lighter fluid on his guitar *whack whack whack*" or something  |

"Jimi hendrix, walks up to an amp and sais, i dont like you amp, *whack whack whack* then he pours lighter fluid on his guitar *whack whack whack*" or something I read in an interview that Mike gave saying that the reason he came up with the over under thing was because when he was gigging at an early age he only got a very small time to show off his guitar skills as the songs were like 90% singing, so he decided "what the hell" and thats how it was born. Maybe i am mistaken, i will try find that interview. Or maybe i dreamed it and and im now going mad?!?!? COOL! lol |
