While I'm totally fond of the "one note guitar solo" and love a single amazing sounding note more than 100 iffy ones, Tara Key from Antietam gave me a pleasure headache with her abilities. So many solos and notes and sneaky chords that all at once made me want to burn my guitar in admiration, and practice for two years straight.
