I never heard of Tommy Emmanuel until tonight.
And I've never heard an acoustic guitar played like this in my life!!!

Yep. In a couple of these it sounds like there's at least two and sometimes three guitars. The guy is amazing.
Beatles Medley
You're kidding, right? That's 4 minutes of my life I won't get back.
I hit delete at 20 seconds. Not my cup of tea.
Chet Atkins used to play two songs at the same time. "Dixie" and the other one I can not remember.

Ha, you watched the whole thing? You must be a fan.
No fan...but I gave it the benefit of the doubt hoping there was something more than an flanged "E" chord, kissy faces, and scratchy pick noises.
It was painful, I tell you...painful.
Tommy's got some notes on that guitar that just aren't on mine.
LOL Sorry man. That guy's just too funny. The Vai hair fan with the knitted shirt along with lyrics from a video game/street gang movie and a flanger to boot! I've heard there are still lotsa guitar players like this, they just tend to live from San Jose south. LOL

Ok, here's a serious one. Nels Cline w/ Wilco. If you haven't heard Sky Blue Sky, you are really missing some great stuff. Killer solo at the end of the tune.
