To be honest, I dont play to poeple much anyway... and it's wierd at what poeple are impressed at... I did some fast tapping in the guitar shop the other day, I just got looks of "oh.. another one, oh he's sooo prebucient.. god... he's not even playing anything descernable",
If you were tapping like that in 1985 all the chics and people for a 1000 miles around would have gathered at your feet just to smell them. Its too bad so many posers ruined tapping because I luv it. aaand also listening to most music today how much of it is discernable. Done well tapping rocks ass, a great book by dave celantano teaches tapping bach pieces. Ifind if you tap around the neck and mix it with other techniques switching sound effects and tell some sort of story with it all, give it some sort of plot-imagine it as a sound track for something.
