Umm. the thread is about timing. And the reference to speed was more just to encourage Fingerspasm, to let him know that even the fastest players had to start somewhere. ;)

Oh, and that other stuff on the ultimate guitar thread is based on legato--which, is very hard to measure. Not only that, but they are talking about 'one-shot' deals. None of those players on the list there can alternate pick at 300 bpm for any real amount of time---half of them can't even do it at 220---at least not from anything of them that I've ever heard ((recorded and/or live))

Trust me. 20nps as a sustainable speed is blistering.
Back In Black isn't a song. It's a divine call that gets channeled through five righteous dudes every thousand years or so. That's why dragons and sea monsters don't exist anymore.
