If you aren't familiar with the Australian guitar player Tommy Emmanuel, check out these links on YouTube. He's amazing, one of the best alive (or dead.)

The first selection made my fingers hurt watching it and I don't even play guitar

The second reminds me of Michael Hedges' music. A guitar great who died way too soon.

Very nice guitar, but I think he needs to do something else with his hair - no one who plays that well should look so dorky :lol:

These guys here (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ygfqFolmuHs&mode=related&search=) think they're pretty awesome, but i thought their play was a little slow and sloppy......i wonder why that is...
