short, it is not!
Closer to 45 minutes <grin>, I can still pick it. A verse is itself
difficult, as it requires "finger-style" picking, but after the ump-teenth
go'round, the hands start to lose track of where they are, due to the
difficult repetition.
It's like manually adding 1000 new Unix users. After the 200th one you
start making mistakes becasue you get lost in the repetition. Just like
playing this song, you are fried to a crisp when you're done.
Yes, off topic, but humerous.<grin>
