Inspired by another thread, i decided to make a video of me playing Iron Man with 2 fingers:

the sound goes a bit off, and it makes my voice sound a bit...different

Genga, you have really long fingers. I now know how you could beat Expert with only 3.

Ok, lets have a stretch lesson people!

Simply keep your index finger on the Green fret, move your middle finger over to the Blue fret and place your ring finger on the Orange fret, you should have something like this:

After a while, and enough practice, you may be able to stretch your middle finger onto the Orange fret while still keeping your index finger on the Green fret. That kinda looks like something like this:

haha, I just managed to do that, I've long fingers too (I'm in the Peter Crouch mould of body shape, but not that tall), but no way could I play like that

I have a bastard time getting clothes, the only tops I wear...

BWFC home shirt (that's Bolton Wanderers, as you had a rugby shirt on :p)

England away shirt

I just get them like 'Men XL' or something

P.S. I'm going to try just playing with three fingers soon... (again, I always revert back to four from habit)

Bolton?!

I got 2 England Home tops, one XL and the other XXL: i like my football tops baggy

3 fingers is easy, but im guessing its easier if you can use your pinky
