    He's got to have steel strong hands for that. I tried that for a minute on my guitar and I was getting brand new calouses in a couple minutes! You can hear it in his playing how much he's practiced, refined and perfected his craft! This is my favorite performance of his.

    I have just seen him today in Cologne, Germany. I just can say: See him live if you have the chance. His playing is simply twice as breathtaking as it is on CD or here on RUclips. Got, get some tickets!

    That sequence at 0:45-0:50 with the fanned fingers and two mutes still sounds so awesome (watched this when it got uploaded and again today so been a long time). Still fun to find that I still think it's an incredibly awkward setting with the small studio and audience looking at the back like that as well.

  • @laurasmu56

    This was amazing. It does sound very similar to his other work, "Air Tap", only bit modified and with percussion.

  • @Aegelis

    This is nice, sounds synthetic in some ways, like a Commodore 64 hooked up to a car battery. Knowing it's natural is beyond amazing.

    This sounds strangely similar to Ocean by John Butler. Must be the same scale or something. Beautiful regardless.

I first saw this clip over 2 years ago and sought out your albums (as well as people like Kaki King and Newton Faulkner) and I am listening to all of you constantly. Thank you for your talent and for sharing it with the world... : )

    I love the sound of it. Sounds like liquid metal dripping down on the strings of the guitar.
    I find it wonderful to be honest. I can see the sun rising when I hear it.
    I know, i'm being far fetched but still, that's the feeling I get when listening to it.
    Absolutely lovely.

    I remember this video from years ago. Really inspirational thing to see for a unique take on how to play a guitar. I thought this video was amazing years ago and I still do today.
    Any other guitar players cringe at the end when he tries to mess up the truss rod adjustments? He must constantly be adjusting that due to all the abuse.

    I'm convinced they save their best stuff for their live shows! That's how they hook you! I said that when I got a BB King album once! -Also when I saw my new favorite Christian Rock band, they were AWESOME LIVE!
    Not all recording artists do that, I know a bunch of bands that sound Ditto like the recording and that is also awesome in it's own way.
