Like trendkillah said, evrything I´ve learned have helped me and always make sure to get good blood circulation before playn. I always keep my room pretty hot and I hate to play when it´s cold.

Before I used to stretch my fingers like Petrucci does on Rock Discipline video but a doctor told that it isn´t good so I stoped. Now I usualy rob my hand against eachother and play the following solos (Civil War (all three), Estranged (both) Nightrain (both) and Shock Me), I really don´t know why but I feel comfortable somehow and has been doin´ that for last 2 years and than I´m ready to roll.
