Well, I do think it's a good thing to have those skills. The problem is that anyone can learn to shred. Every day there are new Michael Angelo/Justin King/little kid etc. videos. Whether they be shredding, tapping, slapping, etc. they all have one thing in common; they're doing something difficult. Nevertheless, they're a dime a dozen because anyone with enough determination can do it. I think it's more important to learn to write the music itself. Only 1% of the population will be bright/creative enought to understand certain concepts, as will only .1% for something else. I don't look down upon them for doing it because it DOES take a lot of skill and not everyone has that kind of determination, but it just doesn't impress me anymore. I was definetely in awe the first time I saw Michael Angelo's Speed Kills video, but over time I just got bored with it. Now I just treat it just like I treat any kind of tempo speed; it's merely a technique used to enhance the liveliness.

My fingers aren't unbelievably huge but my palms for whatever reason are huge. So it kind of balances out and gives me the ability to wrap my thumb an any note I'm playing on the neck.

However, I pity the talented child protige who has a pushy parent or two behind them. Doesn't matter how good you are if you're not enjoying it. There's been several times when I've seen kids down at the climbing wall who are fantastic rock climbers, but they've got some parent literally pushing them onto the wall whilst they're saying 'no, I don't want to.' Those kids are going to be top-notch climbers by the time they hit secondary school, but is it really worth it?
