There's Eric V's article on sweeping here!! (http://www.ibreathemusic.com/article/124) :D

There's also an article by Mike Campese in the articles section!!

I can't recommend any specific websites but you should definitely check out some Frank Gambale. As far as I'm concerned he's the best sweep picker in the world.

Check out this video to see what I'm talking about:

Here's a few from a quick search on YouTube:-

I'd be very hesitant about using YouTube videos because a lot of them are very sloppy. Some are good but for the most part I'd steer clear. Like I said, Frank Gambale is THE man for sweep picking so seek out anything you can by him.

If you check that link and then check out any of the Lori Linstruth lessons, she's a very accomplished 'sweeper'!!;)
