It seemed like it may be fake to me.  At some points the fingers did not match up with the music.

I've become redundant!
Heh (sorry Sheep ;)), 8 year old music marvels are no longer well, marvelous to me, lol....show me an 80 year old shredder, that's what I wanna see more of....would give us hope!  ;D

As for the vid, definitely not live, hell she misses the opening cue right at the start and comes in a few notes behind (in addition to being off in several other spots). One of the comments has it right, she's simply playing along to the actual track running in the background. That said, I have no doubt we're hearing her own playing on that, but most likely recorded in segments. Regardless, she clearly demonstrates she has a great level of hand/eye skill at a young age and may just be a natural monster some day. Plus, she already knows how to make the faces!

Cool vid, thanks for sharing!
S'ok, I'm only 7. ;)

LMAO!
Yeah ... watched it again more closely and she misses parts while the music is still playing.  Still, her dexterity is pretty amazing and it's a full scale neck which can't be easy with her small hands.

BTW, how many sheep years is a human year?  Googled it and one site said 1 human year is equal to 12 sheep year so your 84 Sheep?!?!   :o ;D

Eight year-old shredders aren't that great.  I've found the newer ones are much better (and don't jam as much if you put too many sheets of paper through 'em).
