    Hey hi Eric! I hope you read this message because I think it is important, no more than a year ago I found out about your channel and everything you do is incredible, it is incredible what you were capable of and what you are and will be capable of. I want to give you a suggestion for a video, my suggestion is that you make a video explaining and teaching how to play like Kurt Cobain, his techniques, his hand movements and all that. I think you could make the best video on how to play like Kurt Cobain and his techniques. You could also explain in the video your way of composing with the guitar and how his technique changed or improved over the years. I know that you can find videos about this, but you are Eric, the guy from NirvanaGuitars and I know that you are capable of making an incredible video about it, a very detailed and well-produced video. I hope you consider the suggestion and much better if you accept it and decide that you will make a video about it.
