    What blows me away is that Hoveck, Ellen's father didn't
    " weeze the juice " by playing the guitar...
    Instead he gave the honor to Ellen. 😊 You rock dad! 😎

      Her dad, not father, is smart enough to se his actual legacy, standing in front of him! I do not mean to diminish his musical ability in the smallest way! But he understands she has an amazing future, and will probably have an award winning band, should she ever fo one! Praying Tactical Prayer Support over you. I say sweet young thing only because almost every woman qualifies as that to me at my age! I am totally wheelchair dependent and never had 1% talent at literally (not figuratively) anything compared to her! My prayers are because there is responsibility associated with this. Thankfully she has a Dad who has her 6! You do whT you do. And I believe the creator/god has your 6, starting with a Dad who gets it! Amazingly wonderful! Rock, or jazz/funk on! Will follow your amazing progress for the years I have left Praying for your success all the way as often as the Ruach HaQodesh brings her to mind (which is more often than each video I see.

    Wow, thank-you Mike in SanDieago for recognizing
    Hovak and Ellen and springing this epic surprise to show them.
    When you opened the guitar case up Ellen, the trunk of the car lit up in a white light and the guitar Angles sang. When you took it out of the case and making sure with all your might not to drop it. I'm not gonna lie, a tear almost sprouted out from my eye's. And when Mike helped you with the strap over your shoulders and your legs were trembling with the awesomeness of what's going on at that very moment, guess what happened next? Out came the massive " Grins " from you and in the background all I could feel was Hovak just dreaming of how much he wanted to grab that guitar and play " Jump" right then and there. Gotta agree with one of the comments, after touching that guitar Ellen no more showers for you. That was Awesome and thanks for sharing this.

ELLEN and YOYOKA have no idea how blessed their lives are getting to do things like this. Meeting Rock Legends, and having fans like this, that want to share their experiences with two young, awesome musicians. They have both worked so hard, and deserve the kind of attention they get from fans and legends. I know how much they appreciate it, although by now, I think they believe this is just how life for everyone is. IT'S NOT!

    Ah, that’s wonderful. Edward was one of the greatest ground breaking innovators the instrument has ever had. He was the reason I first picked up the instrument back in 1979 when as a 16 yr old I saw him live in Finsbury Park in London…At the time like many others I didn’t understand how he could make a guitar sound like a Bach organ with two hands on the fretboard. Back then his many techniques had yet to be popularised. It’s great that Ellen gets to play this instrument because with Ed doing stuff for the Opus Foundation for youngsters unable to afford instruments he encouraged young players and helped them considerably. I’m sure Ed would be really pleased about new talented young players like Ellen who will be the next generation of musicianship whether bass or guitar……(Paul )
