The Lick Library team are hosting one of the guitar events of the year on Saturday December 4th at The Garage in London:

Not only will you get to see some of the UK’s top players but you get to see the next generation of idols perform at the Guitar Idol Final.

A Guitaraoke competition will also be running for those brave enough to get up on stage and jam with members of the Lick Library team with the best jam of the day winning a fantastic prize!

Some tickets are still available here.

Guitarist magazine has just uploaded videos of the winning performance for the Guitarist of the Year 2011:

Recently crowned Guitarist Of The Year, Rick Graham, has recorded a video lesson showing you how to play his winning track ‘Thin Ice’:

The lesson has been recorded in glorious HD video and features:

Full 11-page transcription of ‘Thin Ice’ by Jordan ‘Bakerman’ Baker who has been responsible for transcribing, among many others, the work of U.S. band Dream Theater.

A full video performance of the track ‘Thin Ice’ along with breakdown videos of the entire track filmed in Full HD 1080p resolution.

MP3 album recording of ‘Thin Ice’ taken from my debut album ‘Insideout’.

2 different MP3 backing tracks with different endings so that you can play the album version (with fadeout) or perform the track in a live setting (without fadeout)

MP3 of the album recording of the solo section with everything but the lead guitar and Hi-hat removed (Hi-hat for rhythmic reference)
