Brains, anyone...?

I wouldn't be composed enough to play guitar while someone is literally touching my brain. 

Nice

Dude is a fuckin G. I went to NYU and played the whole time I was in my bed all day but I put it down for scans lol. All the doctors love to see that shit, it’s cool. This is crazy lol

Well yeah, you ever try and play from your brain? Then try playing from your heart. Huge difference. Night and day, great quote none the less. 

it’s only possible to “mess up” if you playin from the brain

Now there's probably a chinese kid playing Dragon Force's played Through the Fire and Flames while gettkng a brain surgery, even getting the nurse suck his d***. 

Jokes aside, that's awesome. 

Would be nice to play Pink Floyd's Brain Damage followed by Eclipse.
