I can’t believe no one commented on this - you slackers!

HA-HA! It’s an awesome video and I did mean to comment on it the other night. However, I wandered off into YouTube land watching Doyle Dykes, Tommy Emmanuel, Jerry Reed, Chet Atkins etc… videos and forgot the original ‘thread’ that led me down that path.

YouTube has a way of sucking you in… like a big webber-net enabled vacuum cleaner.

PS Oh and to answer the question; YES, I would like to play the guitar. Right now would be fine… if not sooner.

I heard that... Every time I hear those guys that can REALLY play, I think "Sheesh... why do I even try?" Then I think, "Cuz it's FUN! Even if I do suck!" :laugh:

Todd Rundgren was/is the shizzle ma brizzle…

I remember a live show of his I caught on TV when I was about 15 or 16 years old. I was amazed… good stuff.

D - going to bang on his git all night…

One of the first to record at “home” playing almost everything himself too by the way.

I don’t think Todd Rundgren or Jackson Browne got the accolades they deserved. They were pretty darn big though… I mean look at the awesome stuff those two achieved versus some of the no-talent garbage that’s splattered all over the headlines now? The world is ROTTEN I tells ya!

PS YES… I realize that I sound just like my dad 30 years ago, talking about Benny Goodman and Guy Lombardo… :laugh:
