   Who the hell is this?
">Who the hell is this?That was just incredible.  Anyone have any idea who that is?  And how much of my soul do I need to give up to be able to do the same?[Edited by - Tape_Worm on June 17, 2006 1:47:34 PM]
  I can't remember the guys' name but that video has surfaced several times. It's certainly cool enough, but there are a few other guys (and girls) that do the same. Phil Keaggy has some stuff in a similar vein, but more impressively Kaki King is a young lady who is making quite the name for herself. You can find a video of her on her site, but I highly reccomend picking up her album if you like this kind of music.You might also dig Ani DiFranco.   ;  I was just watching some Kaki King videos on YouTube a few minutes ago, I heard her a couple of years ago.  She's quite talented.  Her style reminds me a lot of Michael Hedges.   ;  Definitely cool, but to be perfectly honest with you...guys like that are a dime a dozen.   ;)edit: whoever rated me down for making this statement is a slob.   ;Quote:Definitely cool, but to be perfectly honest with you...guys like that are a dime a dozen. ;)Yes, that must be why I'm hearing that kind of music on the music video channels, on the radio, and in every bar I visit.  There's lots of shred masters out there too, there's also a glut of 3 chord wonders (there's actually way more of these anyone else).  i.e.  All guitarists are a dime a dozen.  Of course, try and find a bassist or drummer.  Seriously, it's damned difficult to find these guys.  Everyone wants to be a guitar hero or something.

Well, that sucks, but remember, it is only a number.   ;  If you like that sort of thing check out ">Victor Wooten.IMHO best bass player alive, bar none.edit: ">More Vic, and the guitars none to shabby.;Quote:Original post by Driv3MeFarIf you like that sort of thing check out ">Victor Wooten.IMHO best bass player alive, bar none.That guy just radiates style.  Good bass playing often does.   ;Quote:Original post by Tape_WormQuote:Definitely cool, but to be perfectly honest with you...guys like that are a dime a dozen. ;)Yes, that must be why I'm hearing that kind of music on the music video channels, on the radio, and in every bar I visit.

The guitar guru is always the center of attention.  The bass and the drums are merely a diversion.  /(rolls eyes)Dude, if you pick up a guitar and practice every day, within a few years...you will be able to do that easily.  ;)   ;  Oh, and to answer the question originally put forth:(from the comments on that video):"this guy's name is Justin King"
