      @@MarcelloCalabrese-guitar Hello Mr Marcello when i saw on you tube your great and very emotional heartfull play of Shine on you..... as i wanted to make a good comment and congratulate you and as i didn't know how to do it and i'm really a big beginner on internet ( i grew up in a small fishermen and surfing village in a tropical island in the indian océan, and i don't understand english so well) so it seems i really understood wrong when i made my comments on this comment... but i really wanted to congratulate you and say thanks a lot to you,because i would be VERY Happy to be on this street that day and as for me its almost the same sensation i have when i saw the clip of U2= where they com on a total surprise in the street to play their famous song !!!!!! So i really wish you earn good money with your talent because there is a lot of work and practice you did behind it...👍👍👍👍i hope Mr Marcello you see my new comment....

      Met Jaku she clearly digs the floyd, and even if the shirt is not a direct line of fan made content, it has clear indications to Dark side of the moon vibe which is probably a good chance why she bought it, Marcello also noticed it at the start to.

    My first ever vinyl was "Wish you were here" bought for 50p at the age of 12, was completely mesmerised by the guitar intro and the reason why I learned to play a guitar and still play a bit to this very day. Comfortably Numb is one of Floyd's finest and the second guitar solo is one of the finest ever recorded on vinyl, Marcello plays it almost note perfect and the only reason it's not perfect is because he's not Dave Gilmour, but he's the closest I've heard and I've heard quite a few.....
