Erik Mongrain - Air Tap

Great tapping and use of harmonics on a semi accoustic, unreal talent.

Amazing, I bet he's a great typist too,

I would hate to have to write that piece. Come to think of it, how would you write that piece? I'm sure someone could quite easily come up with a clever notation and rhythmic map, but Hey, who wants to read fly shit?

No the truly amazing thing with stuff like this to me is, what we have talked about before "The Zone". Where it still seems to me miracles can happen.
Between man and guitar in this case, but it applies in lots of different areas I'm sure.

What would it do to a person held in that state?

That was super cool.

I love the ethereal feel and sound of this type of acoustic. There's just something about it. And yeah, there is that "zone" where the instrument and the artist are one...I think this guy is in it.

I'd write it on piano first and then transcribe it onto guitar. Pretty much the only way to write 6 and 8 finger tapping IMO.
