Viral Video Ping Pong VI - Shreds

“Viral Video Ping-Pong” - a weekly series on the bigMETHOD blog in which Greg and John attempt to outdo one another with the posting of an incredible low-budget clip.

“[insert famous band] Shreds”

I can’t remember who introduced me to this series of videos, but they are a favorite of mine when it comes time to share viral videos with friends.

Someone or someones have taken famous performances from some of the biggest bands and replaced the audio with instrumentation… of lesser quality. The funniest part about this series of videos is that the are really good at it; really good. To be able to mimic this and make it seem real to the untrained eye is a skill that not many posses (probably by choice).

John posted something really beautiful this week, musically and emotionally… This is the other end of the spectrum:

Other greats include AC/DC, Guns ‘n’ Roses… you get the idea.
