Nothing special, just shred. As always, comments, suggestions, and complaints are always welcome.

Wow, I really enjoyed that. Good form, unpredictable links, nice style. Tom-blurriest was hot. Mostly though I just liked the unpredictability. Thanks for the vid.

Yeah, your trick selection and linkage is really inspiring Ben. Comparable to Jorden, I feel.

1.5 hour session. Played well. Anyone think I look tense when I play? I don't feel particularly tense while I play, but videos look like I'm stiff or something. Maybe it's my hands.

1.5 hour session. I was semi-satisfied with my play. I'm moving back to Vegas tomorrow for at least 6 weeks. I'm uber excited. Especially since I'll be living 2 streets away from Aaron.

Thanks everyone for the kind words.


Took 2 rest days. Not really by choice (had to move and stuff), but I plan on playing today. Hopefully with Aaron Shepherd. Something epicly sad happened. I think I lost my Clavens bag I have been using for the past couple months. It had recently become perfect. :oops: :cry: I think it fell out of my pocket when I sat down in a restaurant.

1.5 hour shred/training session. Aaron played with me for about 30 minutes. I was playing very well. I'm very satisfied with how I played today. I think I'm getting better. :D
