    Thanks watching and yes, I know in ENGLISH this is a called Recorder. Look at the description! ;) However, in other languages it is a called a Flute. I left it as 'flute' in the title so you know what legendary video I am reacting to LOL! Hit like, let's get Alejandro to do a 2020 version!!! - H

      so yeah everyone can pick up the flute but thats true for everything in my opinion, if you are interested in something and practice it you will definitely be able to get praised by everyone that dont know shit about it.
      What's truly difficult is being an expert about it and get recognized by those on the very very top, or just being first at something in general.

      People just doesnt apreciatites what we are doing and how hard is it. Its mostly about your look. If you are a nerdie, even if you play ridicilously faster, doesnt matter, you just average guitarist of every school. But if you got that handsome look, 4 chords makes you peoples attention point.
      And about rocksmith, i prefer guitar hero over it cause Rocksmith is mostly about lerning a song, it just doesnt feels like a game if you know what i mean. It just makes me do what i normally do. Play the guitar. But Guitar Hero has a sweet style which i like a lot, it feels different.
