Somehow... I don't think he's talking about finger picking... I believe he's referring to tapping.... hence "right hand finger up on the neck". So... the technique is called tapping... If you're interested in learning this technique check out the tutorials on this site also listen to "Midnight" by Joe Satriani... this song is entirely two hand tapping (he doesn't PICK a note the entire song). It's not tooooo tough to figure out if you listen to it and get the fundamentals of tapping.
