Cool idea. I'll have to check out their YouTube channel.
Only on the innernets. People used to play chess by mail, but this is a little more interesting.
That book looks like a good read, Chris. I'll have to check it out.
I remember reading somewhere (guitar magazine?) that "Virtual Zeppelin" had begun something of a craze, spawning a run of knock offs covering other bands but I haven't gone looking for them so I'm not too familiar with all that. "jun626" is the guitar player in VZ. He is a Japanese guy still in his 20's I think. I've been playing guitar for 31 years and IMHO this kid is far and away the best cover player to be seen anywhere on the innerwebz (I am guilty of drooling with envy over his seemingly endless collection of vintage guitars). His playing is flawless.
Is goes without saying there is an awful lot of pure shyte on YouTube passed off as covers. jun626 and those he associates with are unquestionably the best to be seen. These kids (most in their early 20's) are head and shoulders above all the rest.
He is a massive Deep Purple, Beatles and Pink Floyd fan. I highly suspect that other videos by "tokairock" and "mg4150" are in fact the very same person, jun626.
