http://forums.13x.com/showpost.php?p=2913681&postcount=859 :wow: I know this isn't new, but I just found this video..... The most ridiculous performance I've ever seen. (Metalheads beware: It's acoustic) I'm going to see this guy play this summer. Can't freaking wait!
Now see...I got banned for doing the very same thing he has done in this thread......MONGO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Nice playing on that 12-string! I am SURPRISED no one has mentioned The Indian Doctor! :wow: (The Indian Doctor road races too.) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LLYJ30Si6Cs
Tommy emmanuel FTW!!! He's been voted worlds best accoustic guitarist... I don't play, but have seen him 3 times, blown away everytime
Nice song. Not very difficult though. Like someone said it's in open tuning. His right hand technique is pretty damn good though... Check out Justin King...
I can't hear a 12 string without thinking about the smell of the acoustic section at that shit ass store Guitar Center....Strange.
Best part about seeing him is he's usually in a smaller venue (auditorium, small convention center) his tickets cost $30, your in there w/1000 or so people who aren't looking to start a mosh pit..... and the best part is, he'll play for 2 hours non-stop. My father plays, and says his music is probably the hardest to learn and play he's seen (not 12 string) He said Tommy will play 3 different guitar parts at the same time.... he's truly inspiring:up:
