    I love Rusty Cooley. He's the reason I picked up a 7 along with Chris Broderick.
    Wish Outworld could make a comeback.

    I saw that little tag at the bottom that said bring back Outworld. Well.....That would be quite amazing. I sure miss jamming those tunes. They all were quite taxing on us all to play but we had the greatest time writing them all .The single greatest album I ever wrote drums on and definately enjoyed rehearsing them. But all of that having been said, every night at rehearsal, I was humbled by just simply watching and hearing Rusty play. We threw down!!
    Thanks Herman Li for having Rusty on. You are a gentleman and a maestro sir!

      Found Outworld when I was in high school like around 2012, seemed like just the one album, but absolutely adored it.
      Bought physical, even during our digital age.
      Thanks for all your hard work

    It's funny that Rusty Cooley mentioned Scott Mishoe because a lot of people don't remember him, but he was one of those guys doing crazy things back in the nineties. For example, his slap and tapping technique was from outerspace, and even today you watch videos and can't believe what he is doing. Guthrie Govan has mentioned Mishoe as well in one of his videos.

    I checked out Todd Duane here on youtube. His playing sounded very familiar. It turns out that Todd Duane played in a band/project called Electrocution 250. They released an album called "Cartoon music from Hell" back in 2003. It was a mixture of instrumental metal/prog/jazz-fusion. This is an album I used to listen to quite a lot some 15 years ago or so. It is worth checking out.

    Awesome vid. Found Rusty when just scouring the net for completely over the top shred in the early aughts, found a bunch of him, Francesco Fareri, and other early 7 and 8 string adopters and being floored by both the technique and their Rachmaninov class stretches. I simple9 lack the digit length to do an 8 string cleanly, and I need a very thin and narrow neck to make full use of the extra B string on a 7 string without lots of inadvertent mutes and fret buzz.
    War of rbe Angels remains one of my all time favorite balls to the wall wankfests some 20 years and I've actually learned most od it, though I've never tried to do a full playthrough in a single take.

    Well I agree that he can pick fast but he doesn’t cover a lot of the fretboard like a lot of other guitar players that probably play as quick if not faster than him. for instance a guy that I think you should have on your show is Paul Wardingham. Also another guy which isn’t that main stream who is a phenomenal player is Rick Graham. Also Angel Vivaldi is a great player that I think you should also have on the show. Staccato playing is great but me personally I like players who mix in legato phrasing also with the staccato to make it more versatile. Like Satriani
