There was a 15yr old here in AZ who just got publicity on the news recently. Some stuff about "he's not old enough to be in the bars he's playing in..."
Whatever happened to kids who play with toys?

I used to attend a blues night at a local bar and once in a while this 10 year old would show up and blow everyone away. He was better than guys who have been playing for 30 years. I think it's all his parent's doing though - it looked like he hated every minute of it, which is sad.

"Born in Sweden in 1988, Johan started playing guitar at the tender age of 9."
I hate it when someone says "the tender age of.." Just sounds pretentious

(Jul 19 05, 15:18)Ok, but what about ideas behind the music. Is the boy strong or is just another Malmsteen going up and down at lightspeed on the fretboard?

No guitarist should aspire to sound like Steve Via.
Do something original instead.

i love seeing old people getting all defensive and scared of the younger generation

when i'm older and someone 1/4th my age is better qualified to do my job, i might be scared too.
but i'd probably just start drinking more instead.

i want to see a video of him playing... those songs are so rebuilded, overdubbed and edited ... there's no feeling at all in his songs.
He seems to be too mechanical and technical oriented.
NO FEELINGS, NO INTUITIONS.
HE FOOCKING SUCKS! ;P
