One of my alltime fave video game theme songs. From one musician to another, great job!

Yes!! VideoSongs meets video games!! Pure awesome!!
If you don't know what VideoSongs, check out Jack Conte. It is a new medium with 2 rules:
1. What you see is what you hear (no lip-syncing for instruments or voice).
2. If you hear it, at some point you see it (no hidden sounds).Hope to see more awesome renditions of gaming musical masterpieces!

Linkara's right. Something from Sonic 1 would be suh-weet. Anything else is fine too.

That was forking brilliant of you, sir. I mean it. Absolutely outstanding. And I'm pleased to see this is it's own channel on Blip, meaning you intend for more than just the one. That's awesome.

I gotta say i loved your skills on the guitar(s), they were awesome, but the drums didnt really seem to fit all that well into the whole thing, im not sure if its because your not as good with the drums as with the guitars or if the "tabs" for them were strange but i think it would've been better without them as they dragged the rest of the performance down.
Dont want to offend you or anything, just wanted to give an honest opinion.

Thats cool, I'm not offended at all. I'm always looking to improve myself in as many ways possible, so I'll make sure that I'm tighter on the drums next time I do one of these videos if the song calls for drums. I live with an amazing percussionist, so perhaps he can help me with my chops

I feel the same way, I don't believe it's about your skill with the drums, though; I just felt that the drums were too far into the foreground, if you know what I mean. From the way you did this vid (which is also impressive, BTW), it should be easy for you to make a remix of your performance. I'd really like to hear how this song sounds with the drum track at a lower volume, or maybe without it.Anyway, awesome work man; Keep playing it loud!

I believe the proper term to describe this is "Made of win".
Also, I request Frog's theme from Chrono Trigger.

In the highly unlikely event that you and I should ever meet, I would very much like you to sign my NES copy of Double Dragon. You honor the game with your music.....
