"You Go Girl",,, awesome, Naska, best I've heard yet. Great vibrato and the tempo was right on.

You have shown tremendous improvement since I've been around here and you're just getting started.

 

    thumbs-up Excellent job.

Aw so beautifully done!  Hey, you cut your hair.  Cute.

Here's my attempt to play it. Sorry about flaws, guys, i had only couple tries before the batteries died =)

This reminds me that you need badges. Normally you members are supposed to ask me to apply them but in your case :)
I believe you get four out of the five right? You just haven't had your hands on the traveler yet. Let me know and I'll apply the badges to your profile.

You deserve all those party badges but I'm afraid you only get one. LOL
So am I correct to assume that you have posted 4 of the 5?
Party, performance and project I am sure of. I believe you have posted your video in the critique corner as well????

Hey, I have tried over the last year to find your Dark Waltz video again. Did you delete it?  I want to have another listen!
