Tina S covers Through the Fire and Flames originally by DragonForce
Tina S taps, shreds and literally smokes Through the Fire and Flames.
This 15 Year French female performs pure magic on the fretboard. Many musicians visit my sites and I hope that they view the Tina S videos. Astoundingly perfect Guitar work by Tina S.

True Love does last to the very end. Floyd Hartwig was married to Violet Hartwig for 67 years. He passed away while holding Violet’s hand. Violet passed away soon after.
My condolences go out to the Hartwig family, who recently lost both their Mom and their Dad.
Violet married Floyd, the love of her life, in 1947. 67 years later both Violet and Floyd were terminally ill and in Hospice care. Their kids pushed the two beds together. Floyd reached over and held Violet’s hand and then passed away. Violet passed on soon after.
True Love does last to the very end….

Next Suits and Spooks event to be held in London England on May 06 and 07 2015
Suits and Spooks Events are a bit like TED Talks, but focused on Cyber Security issues. From the Suites and Spooks webpage: “Each event draws thought leaders and decision makers from the public, private, defense, law enforcement and intelligence sectors who come to learn about and discuss some of the key security challenges which face our digitally connected nation and world“
One unique aspect of the presentations made at Suits and Spooks is that after the first 10 minutes, the Audience can join in by asking questions or directly challenging the presenter. Audience participation resulting in Debate and Discussion is the cornerstone of these events.
The next Suits and Spooks Event will be held in London England on May 6th and 7th 2015.

Guitar solo from Pink Floyd’s Comfortably Numb played effortlessly by Tina S.
Believe or not, she is only 15 years old.
Tina S plays guitar with extraordinary technical ability, while making it look so effortless.
Video is courtesy of the Tina S YouTube channel
One thing that is rather unique about this Tina S version. She does not use the Tremelo Bar / Vibrato Arm at all. She creates a similar effect by pulling and pushing the guitar strings. Check out YouTube for videos of David Gilmour playing Comfortably Numb, to see and hear what I’m talking about
Click on this line to visit the Tina S Facebook page.
Her Guitar teacher has been Renaud Louis-Servais. Click on this line to visit his YouTube channel
You can also find Tina S on Twitter.
