ive been reading heaps of stuff on the net about shredding and im baffled.to play very fast do you just have to put 100s of hours in practicing or is there some kind of secret that only a few people know about?some say that buying the secret will make you play faster in 7 days others say its just practice.this is driving me bloody mad lol.im convincing myself that its a well kept secret amoungst the chosen few.its a secret society,funny handshakes and dodgy winking and nudging.is shredrex the leader?or maybe rick (yahsteck 1)?mmmm.what do they know?bleep im going mad not knowing,if you know send me an email.

I think it's like anything else, learn the right techniques and practice like hell. :)

The secret has been handed down from generation to generation by the Knights Templar. They learned it when they searched for the Holy Grail after the Second Crusade and found the Shredding Secret instead. Old scriptures say that the first person ever to shred was a French Templar knight in the 12th century, but he and his comrades swore on blood to tell only frllow members of the order.

When the order was dissolved and its members tortured and disowned in 1307, the Secret of Shred fell into darkness. Only a handful of Templar descendants knew it was still there... exactly how it reappeared in the first decades of the 20th century may never be known... but still, it will be revealed only to few, and many who have sought to steal it for themselves have paid with their lives!

So they say.

One word... Metronome! That's one of the most crucial things you'll need. Just ask John Petrucci. He swears by his!

Actually I think Bob has the secret. It's called reggae and it attracts chicks like a megaton magnet and cheap metal.
