Absolutely love him. If I were to pick any style I could perfectly mimic, it would be his, especially when he plays on his acoustic

Any of you post on UG here?
It's really not that hard to quantify..., but I believe that being raped once is not as bad as being raped five times, even if the one rape was by a gang of people.

I like when he plays his nylon string like: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X7WQVC1Eiu4
I love that stuff, I bought a Yamaha nylon string because of it. Now I play at a restaurant near where I live. $100 a night ^_^.

Nice! I've always wanted a job like that, but don't know how to get into it, and haven't been bothered to find out  ::)

It's handy when you know the restaurant owners... honestly if you just get a loop pedal or some backing tracks (I use a loop pedal) then it's quite easy and most restaurant owners would like to have you play, so long as you play music appropriate to the restaurant haha..

Lol at the Tommy E worship though I can't really fault anyone for that. He is really good.

John Williams is another great guitarist. I should really learn to fingerpick soon, giving up electric

Did i mention I have his signature  ;D ;D ;D ;D

I believe you did, yes.

Did I mention that I've been to a guitar workshop lead by him? An intimate crowd, only ~30 people. He gave me a set of strings  ;D ;D ;D ;D
