I think you're one crazy mofo. Excuse me french.

You're great at what you're doing. =)

Keep up the great work!

That's insane Adam, do you just play guitar or do you play other classical instruments?

Thanks,

I had been playing accordion too (gradauted primary music school in accordion class), but not anymore.

So is 2-handed tapping classical mainly what you focus on?

Classical - no. Counterpoint - yes. Counterpoint in classical (Bach, for me most interesting), but also jazz.

J play also jazz with my trio, (last year I have won best musician price on national jazz festival in Sieradz in Poland...).

Please check mp3 on my site.

well he plays the accordian, so he could pick up the piano no sweat, guess he prefers guitar

That is really cool dude...very..very well played.
I had never heard of Portato...and thought I'd seen everything.

AMAZING.

So adam, if you're still around, are you making a pretty good living doing what you do on guitar?

>are you making a pretty good living doing what you do on guitar?

I'm a teacher in the collage here in Poland. I gradauted Informatics at Wroclaw University (master), and this is my "usual" job. Unfortunatelly people here in Poland earn not a lot of money. I think it's something like 300-400 USD per MONTH.

From time to time we play gigs here in Poland, and outside Poland (last time we have played gig in Berlin/Germany last Friday), and thats the way to earn some extra-money. But nothing special (in Poland). I'm looking for manager to play more gigs in West Europe, because it's rich area to play gigs, and our gigs are great advertisement for club (very original music - there is something to write about in press and other media).

Actually we play better, and better gigs (better places, more listeners), and always club owner is very happy to have such impressive gig. I hope for next 3-8 years after releasing first CD I would stop working as a teacher in collage.

Last time I have stopped to spend my money on gear.

That's really unfortunate you can't earn near what you obviously deserve with your mad skills.

At least your making an honest living doing what you love right?

Hey!!! I just thought of something Adam!

Not just cause you're Polish, but you've gotta know some Chopin. If so, please post some that would be awesome! not that I don't like bach, cause I do. but Chopin is the man.
