If you've never met him, he is so nice and down to earth. When you talk with him it's like talking to a friend. Sweet man and sweet sweet music.
Brilliance at its finest!!! Thanks for sharing it with us!
His tone is sooooo incredible, and he play so easy it's like he's just falling off a log
And you can still see him (along with some stellar friends) at the Midway Saloon in St. Paul on University Avenue, just about every Wednesday!
This made made so happy! Thank you!
Pat is awesome - I just taught with hime at Swannanoa. Great player!!! Funny dude!!!
Magic! and he makes it look so easy lol! I' d love to hear him live!! Pat , if you ever come to Ireland we'll organize a gig for people here to experience this...
I love this and all of Pat's work; just so sorry he was forced to leave "Prairie Home".
Beautiful!
He is so awesome. I saw him at a workshop at USU and became a huge fan. Keep it up Pat.
Brilliant, so true! I have two of Pat's CD's here in the UK and they are great. Now i need to go and practice. Max
Cleaver lyrics- My hat's off to you on that one- Great job
How the heck do you top that? Funny, clever and perfectly precise playing, without busting out laughing during the performance, all the while making it look easy. Only someone who puts hours and hours into his trade can pull this off.
Would like to hear him do the Sushi song.
Wow....since I AM the wife of a guitar player....I didn't know whether to laugh or cry.......we live in a different world.
amen, sister :-)
I love this guy!
Me, too!
Hi Pat, this made me wear a grin all day!
Soooo good, thank you.

This song captures the essence. You will never be good enough, so don't compete with other than yourself. And if you try to become the best, then you have to work hard every day of your life. You still have no guarantees -- you'll probably fail. But the beauty is that if you study people like Pat Donohue, then you can put music to your thoughs in a way that nobody else ever has. Maybe somebody likes it, or maybe somebody doesn't.
i stumbled upon this randomly when i was 9 looking for guitar tutorials and 'would you like to play the guitar'randomly played in my head 5 minutes ago so i had to find this lol.
Pat taught my guitar history class today. He played this, awesome guitar player! Go usu
Very good!
lol I love prairie home companion! Pat Donahue is a big reason why
that pretty much sums it up...
Love it!
Nice, Pat.
My wife is married to a guitar player, and I can vouch for every word...on her behalf.
Great Fun 👍👍👍💯💯✔✔
My husband attends "Blues in the Gorge". Pat is usually present there. We also watched Pat perform at Timberline lodge awhile back. When "Blues in the Gorge" finishes. We go to Alberta Rose Theater in northeast Portland. He also performs there. One of my favorites of his is "Irish Blues"🤣🎸🎶🎙
Great one!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Met Pat at the Chet Atkins festival a few summers ago... what a great guy. Love the song; afraid I'm going to have to learn it now...
Pat is a great guitarist, yes, that is actually a complement. There's another fine version of this on YT by another excellent musician who credits Pat in his intro... Jim Kweskin.

That was GREAT! I MUST add this to my list.
Well, I guess you have convinced me this would be a loss if I didn't learn it and join the fun! Thanks doc
Cool Lyrics man
Love it Pat!
LOVE IT.
Fantastic parody of a song we know well thanks Pat.
Great.I tried to learn this after seeing a guy named fretkillr on youtube do it but it was a bit over my head. Think I'll give it another try!! Awesome!!
GREAT!
ChrisPicking
cool
can you give a lesson for this one
Pat, or somebody please help... I very much would like to have a good tab for this tune? Can somebody please help?
Love it!
Out stinkin-Standing! I love it! (That goes for Chromatic harmonica players too)
My hands hurt from just watching those chords fly by. So casual. So...laissez-faire. Donohue is crazy good and brilliantly funny.
Great stuff. And sadly too often true.
great Job Pat and thanks for the great song
if you dont mind my asking but didnt Chet do a version of it as well?
thanks for the post
Paul
Yes
chet atkins once said " yeah this pat donahue guys pretty darn good" when chet atkins says that about u, the rest of us ar not worthy
I'll admit, the guy is a genius!
@edwdixon5 I totally agree, I love that song ever since I heard it on Folk Alley.
Hilarious!!!
Ah the first guy who's got it totally right, not a word lied here, yes indeed the manager with his 20%,a few phone calls and he's got his cash again ,the musician can work his balls off, driving from Coast to Coast, the playing is great and the rest can be flushed down the toilet. Greets Vic.
So much better than the original!
How can I learn this song?!
It's really difficult to figure it out pnly from watching others play it.
"..she`s either a saint or else she`s nuts..."
Well, she married a guitar player, so I`m leaning heavily towards the latter. :)
I look a class with Pat at California Coast Music Camp several years ago. He borrowed my guitar to play one tune. Maybe some of that talent (and skill) will rub off on me.
Where can I get this sheet music at? Fantastic!
Yeah, Vic, there always seems to be a bigger fish out there....just ask any athlete. Let's hope they never make a steroid for guitarists!
The hardest trick for any guitarplayer is making money. =[
What? Forced to leave the Prairie Home Companion? What's the deal with that? Tell us more......
Ha ha bigben, freely swimming for as long as it lasts before eaten by a another, not such a big difference compared to modern society, don't you think? Vic.
Yeah, there's a lot worse things you could be than a guitarist. Or would you rather be a fish???
