DM's very own Guitaroo, aged 11, has topped the youtube music charts this week.
The video, which features Guitaroo playing "C Blues Jam" on electric guitar has been impressing and amazing visitors to the site. With his confident and relaxed style it comes as no surprise that some are already comparing this young talent to "slowhand" himself, Eric Clapton.
Guitaroo has an unstoppable enthusiasm for music; he is passionate about his guitar playing and works hard to perfect his art. As an active DM member Guitaroo also spent his Summer vacation organising the DM Alternative Radio Station.
This week Guitaroo described himself as someone who "one day hopes to make a living in music". He's definitely on the road to many future successes.
DMusic has discovered yet another up and coming talent!

Guitaroo described himself as someone who "one day hopes to make a living in music".
I hope he gets his wish. But having his vids on YouTube means that the RIAA gets paid (and Guitaroo doesn't.)
Let's see, 38,737 views so far. If the ad-revenue was 5 cents per click, that's close to $2000.
If you split that amount 50/50, YouTube would rightfully owe you about a grand.
Sure, the ad-revenue is probably not that high, but even still. YouTube is sharing the money with the RIAA and NOT with you. (Other vid sharing sites like http://revver.com ARE sharing the ad-revenue.)
I am very very happy so many folk have seen your vid, but PLEASE do yourself a favor and put it somewhere else besides YouTube.
Sorry to rain on what should be a lovely parade.

HHI is a ripping group... It's a little.. over.. 4 years old now I suspect..  lol, we're a sorry lot.. We haven't released anything new in 5 months or more... Super lazy...
Anyways, I showed your video to the crew at a pizza meeting the other night, everybody thinks you are excellent with a guitar man. Very skilled for your age! Keep up with it.. It's a gift!
