I’d love to see Troy interview Rick as well. Rick seems to have all the moves, economy picking/sweeping, hybrid, two-way slanting, as well as legato, and tapping. He also seems like a real cool guy!
Peace out!

Inside Out & a new one coming out. He has a tons of followers and plays every style possible and is known/kinda known. Like mentioned he did a fitness program lost weight got into great shape and almost daily on Instagram I see a shred passage he created, or working on!! Makes my day 
He is funny and seems like a blast to hang with sndca little bit of a mad guitar scientist! Hahahaha
I forgot to mention I agree one of the pieces of his except a few of his mellow stuff I can play too. Lol I slow down his stuff from what bought and still it’s just crazy the way he looks like his right hand is open and chillin’ with hybrid… That’s what I want to see with Troy asking all the intense questions about his playing. Too damn good to be not known more! He’s not doing bad but you know he deserves it.
I think it would probably cut into his teaching business. Why buy his lesson programs if you can get close ups of everything for a monthy sub at another site?
BTW, I get that he’s excited that he lost weight, but this is a journey/achievement that many people either A) Do not need because they have good lifestyle habits… or B) Have achieved themselves. The information is out there, I think it diminishes his brand to sell a weight loss program on his website.

Oh, I totally agree, and as far as the weight-loss get in shape situation I’m only making note that it was, and is a great accomplishment not really fond of selling a program for it on a guitar site either. If he wanted to do that it should be separated into two types of businesses rather than mix the two. Unless you can market it as the buff guitarist just kidding LOL. Besides all that fantastic player awesome dude and I’m glad to see others think the same as I’ve talk to him a few times and he is super cool. Maybe it plays into mad guitarist mindset like the composers of back in the day!
