Its kind of like the second video you made and had a hard time switching the same minor chord up/down the neck. After realizing that, the next time through it just worked. Start trusting your muscles do to what you have thought them, when you need to make a D or a C, just think it, don't start telling your "fingers" what to do, let "them" do.

Well, the chords used are only A5, D5 and E5 (though they can easily be replaced with Barre-chords instead), so playing it with Open Chords instead would change the sound a bit, since the E Major Open Chord is remarkably lower in pitch than an E Major Barre Chord played at the A String, 7th fret. Then again, they didn't seem to mind that I changed the rhythm a bit (the other guitarist even adapted his rhythm-playing to match mine), so who knows? And it could give some interesting results if done right.
