Don't let vidoe fool ya'

After all it killed the radio star :rolleyes:

Both alt and trem picking has it's uses. But try to look at it from a realistic (non-video) stand point. Your fingers (regardless of practice and time ) can only go so fast "together". Thus you have the need for HO's and PO's.

Sometimes it may look like someone is picking a note on a video when in reality they are not and they are using a HO or PO.

IMHO focus more on the HO's and PO's. Trem and Alt picking should take serious consideration but not you full attention.
