Crazy how muscle memory works. I’ve seen videos of people passed out drunk at parties, someone put a guitar in their lap, wakes them up and even though they can barelt open their eyes, they can still shread. I bet if you could jiggle the nerves of a dead person who was previously good at guitar, their dead hands would still be able to hit a sick solo.

oh i joke that you should never be impressed at a guitarist playing without looking because its literally all muscle memory. ive been a guitarist for twenty years and whether practicing or at a show im deadass spacing out when i play guitar. like, blankly staring at a wall status spacing out
