So I got really tired of recharging batteries, and the batteries were getting really old and would not hold a charge any more. Plus as some of you may know, I have broken my wife's camera once before in the past. Therefore I bought a webcam. Not a real fancy one, but certainly one that does not require batteries.

So here is my test video, a seriously-overplayed version of Ghosts of War. I am trying to get my speed in order again, so this tune was an excellent exercise in attaining that goal. For the most part, I do okay, but there are a couple of fills I would like to have back, and that last note is a little late and is driving me nuts. But that's me.

This tune reminds me of high school, cruising around trying to avoid cops while we did things kids do. Ghosts of War was definitely the fastest tune off of South of Heaven, an album that at the time made a lot of us Slayer fans wonder if they sold out. They did not. LOL.

So enjoy my first vid with a new webcam...a little better framerate now. Forgive the rhythm discrepancies and odd timed notes...one does not get thrash skills back overnight, and I'm starting to get a bit old, admittedly. Not only that, but if you think this is what Tom Araya plays, you are mistaken. tom has all that vocal crap to worry about, so the bass on this tune is the simple driving of pedal notes.
