Clint,
Brilliant! You owned this track by the end of your improv. Great idea to speed it up as I think it helped shift the focus away from the backing to your lead.

Thanks for the cool comment, I truly appreciate it. As I mentioned before, I would have never sped it up had I not watched Brian's video first. That cartoony vibe really worked and defined the track. I had to take it in a new direction after that.
