Due to the buzz my post of a few days ago about Tiago Della Vega generated and the discussions about this guy lacking other skills but speed, I have decided to show a video I have found on YT with him playing a slow instrumental song, Isabella.
The fact is that I was a bit surprised about him not jumping right from the start to those fast phrases, I guess I had a predefined idea that this is all that this guy, Tiago Della Vega, is, a fast player. But he also has nice phrasing, a good tone and a beautiful song structure, so without any other words, I give you Isabella and Tiago Della Vega, the fastest guitar player in the world, 2008 playing a slow song.
I ask myself if it isn’t boring for him to hold a long note…hmm

Well that was definitely better than the last video where he set the record.

Well that was definitely better than the last video where he set the record. He still threw in some speed though. But not bad at all!

Yeah, it’s nicer here but OK, on the other one he had a target and he reached that target. That does not define him as a musician, I guess.

Cool. People shouldn’t be jerks about people being fast or be jerks about people being slow. People should just be jerks about people being the Ghallagher Brothers. Anyway this guy is cool its not what im into but hes awsome and people should just have an attitude like that if they don’t like it instead of being like “OMG he has no soul omg omg he played fast there what was that about omg”
