So incredibly overjoyed to see these two passionate guitarists share a screen. My teacher interviewing my impossible aspiration - an honor to witness. So happy LickNRiff is getting this deserved recognition.
You were obviously overawed in a face to face with this legend (as anyone would be!)......but Tommy is a real pro and a gentleman answering questions and trying to put you at ease as an interviewer. A naturally gifted player with no airs or graces. A pleasure to watch. Thanks a lot.
Tommy Emmanuel is such a musical gem...not only an amazing guitar player but also someone who's also passionate about sharing his experiences and guitar knowledge with the world. When I met him a few years ago I was completely blown away and was at a lost for words when I came face to face with the legend. He is truly larger than life.
You could barely contain yourself in this interview. I could tell when you were syper excited, i could see when you got chills, amd you could tell when you wanted to speak but decided not to lol. What an awesome chance to pick the brain of a master.
Wonderful interview Assaf. You are so genuine and happy to be interviewing Tommy. Other interviews are too flat and technical, you are sincere and excited and not trying to be too cool to let it show, like a kid with his idol. Tommy is so gracious and kind in return. I feel like I learned something listening, but I was touched by the exchange between the two of you.
I've learned a ton from Assaf over the years. Thank you. I've been inspired a ton by Tommy over the years, Thank you. Seeing both of you in one video...Speechless. Peace Friends.
I can't believe I used to watch this 'boy' years ago when I was a kid in Melbourne, he was just a boy to me, being three years younger, and I had no idea that one day I would be trying to play guitar. Started at 68. Not too late, never too late.
Both of you are the reason why I play so much better than I did last year. I wish my passion of this instrument only keeps growing like you two gentlemen. Blessings from this kid from India who is about to turn 18!
First of all thank you Lick N Riff for this vdo.... Tommy Emmanuel is my guitar hero and am absolutely happy that you managed to bring him in your channel....TE is genuine and so well disciplined and loyal to his music that he doesnt want to disappoint his audience in anyway when he plays.... His advices are always worth listening to.... Thanx Assaf.... 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Wow, what a great surprise to see the great TE on your channel! I met Tommy at a meet and greet and he's a genuinely nice and humble man. Way to go LickNRiff
The one thing I got from this interview, was justification for myself for playing a piece over and over again. I used to wonder, am I wasting my time? No, just perfecting. I don't care if I can only play ten or twenty songs after ten years, but I want to play them well. Thanks Assaf!
great video mate .so jealous you got to talk to him about the guitar ! omg id do his head in haha to me tommy is the king of groove! his feel is amazing !
he is like my patreon,, my idol... yes its sad, everybody is getting older. Tommy looks older, he have a tough life and full of adventure. I admire him
I've followed both you guys for years both very both very inspirational. Was wondering if you would ever get to play or talk to Tommy. . Great interview 👍👏
There's only a handful of people who hv ever reached that level of craftsmanship. You don't need to be like Tommy to call your a guitar player. Just enjoy it best you can :)
15:25 .. Tommy says "there's millions of ppl can play rings around me," I have seen no evidence of that, sure there are plenty of good players however no one I have ever seen has achieved the mastery of the acoustic guitar like he has .. good interview :)

Hello Assaf, thanks you for all the things your are doing for us poor and early guitarists for ever...
The Master. He is humble too, I enjoyed this.
What a coup for the channel, Asaf, getting TE on! Awesome stuff!

These are my favourite two guys. Assaff is on point. Brain picking everything. And Tommy just being just a very giving teacher. Kudos.
Cheers to two big hearted generous great fingerstyle guitarists!
This is one of the best interviews I have seen because you didn’t interrupt him like most interviewers and made him feel comfortable thx Pat Cochrane
Although, it was obvious you wanted to many times. lol.

I met Tommy Emmanuel twice and had him sign two of my guitars. Truly a master of the acoustic guitar....
Thanks to both of you for this inspiration . Bring more and a deep .
“That’s how you set yourself free to feel the music is you put in the practice.”
Indeed it is honoured!
There are many people who PLAY the music very nice BUT Tommy is not simply playing he IS MUSIC!

Great interview Assaf. What an honour to interview Tommy! How amazing does his guitar sound, even through a webcam?!
I think this might be the best Tommy interview.

What a great man!!!👍👍👍
Wow!! One of my favorites. Great interview.
Hey, LickNRiff, thanks!!! Best tips from the master!
legendary interview 🙏🏼
Tommy is absolute class
Спасибо за такое интересное интервью!!!
Обычно плохо понимаю английский на слух, но тут так было интересно, что понял все)
У Томми прекрасное чистое произношение. И вообще, я заметил, что я на слух лучше понимаю именно австралийцев, чем американцев или британцев.
I got to see him play last year, what an amazing player and funny guy
both seem to have very likeable personalities! Thanks for the interview! ;)
Great interview.
Cheers from Indonesia.
When I can play like Tommy, I will then call myself a guitar player. What a master!!!!
There's only a handful of people who hv ever reached that level of craftsmanship. You don't need to be like Tommy to call your a guitar player. Just enjoy it best you can :)
"My technique is the vehicle but the song is the Star of the show".... nuff said.
Respect dude!
Tommy Emmanuel the man the myth the legend 🤯
Tommy invite this man to be playing with you on a show! He deserves it just for the love he is giving to our community.
15:25 .. Tommy says "there's millions of ppl can play rings around me," I have seen no evidence of that, sure there are plenty of good players however no one I have ever seen has achieved the mastery of the acoustic guitar like he has .. good interview :)

Seems like he can't live without his guitar for more than 10 minutes. Unless he's asleep.
Yessssssssssssss!!!
