    If only you were nations and not persons....man...this world would be paradise....how come the human race can't collaborate the way you and Davie do?....This is so healthy...we're such in need of this kind of vibe.
    Thanks man for everything...thanks for the dedication, for the music, for the humor, thanks for going out and putting this material available for us....lots of hours of work for this 8' minutes where we switch off of this fucking reality and let our spirits fly high.
    Cheers from Argentina.

    About five years ago I came down with severe neuropathy in my hands and arms, and it got so bad that I couldn't tell how much pressure I was putting down on things how little or how much and I would literally make my fingers bleed when I tried to play because I couldn't feel that I was pressing down massively hard. I literally haven't played guitar or Bass since then and it breaks my f****** heart man. But I just can't feel things properly in my hands. So I have to live vicariously through you Charlie and others like you like Davie, so thanks for doing what you do and to all the players out there I can still at least watch someone tear it up on a stringed instrument and be inspired and just remember the good old days. I'm 40 now been playing since I'm 15 or I was playimg since 15 at least. So it's been the vast majority of my life a huge part of it and it's just been taken from me.

UA-cam was a lively place and a place for creatives. Now it's become a place for non-creatives and sandbox content. But the spirit of the true, old school, music/memeology/local internet culture is being kept alive by the energy of people like you who put out content that brings a smile in people's lives. Thank you. Also tons of respect for DragonForce (that guy doesn't age! hahaha) Great stuff guys, keep the music live!
