This guy is awesome, he was on Jools Hollan tonight using just 1 string, apparently hes been around for years. Thought it was wirth sharing.

Pretty cool

I wanted the 1 string vid but naturally it is not on the nets yet.

I saw this chap open up for buckethead one time. F U george. This is better.

that is very very cool.

been listening to loads of mississippi fred mcdowell lately, reminds me of a punkier version of that.

edit: naturally i didn't mean whatever the hell was in the post immediately above.

Lol, awesome.

makes me want to buy a guitar and start practicing again. Nice sound he has there

blah fucking seasick steve

i dont like to be the one in the thread which goes 'blah fucking seasick steve' but blah fucking seasick steve. festival whore bitch man used to be all tiny and wicked, he'd set up somehwere in a campsite at a festival and just play on his own and pull in a big crowd but now hes just URGH ive decided to shut the fuck up.

NO ive not had enough he plays with one/three whatever strings but come on its not like that sort of music needs anymore strings. he's doing nothing new, this musics not exactly original. manz be getting sucked in by this gimmick of removing all the strings you arent using on your guitar and pretending your haggard as fuck

I didn't think about. Just thought he had a nice sound. I imagine he thought it sounded good too. Richie havens only plays with his thumbs. Who cares

The amount of strings wasn't what attracted me actually, I like his one man sound. Right now I'd be sending you a picture of my naked ex gf over msn, but actually it'd be my cock, but you'd accept coz you'd believe me. But you're offline so fuck you.

@ Josh

Yeah, exactly marf.

heard one of his songs, heard em all

You mean like Autechre and BOC?

im unimpressed with that analogy george

as am I

seen him live twice. he's great at what he does.

He is good, but he does seem to ellicit a bit of an annoying response from people who think they've just discovered a new underground hero with a quirky backstory. I'm mostly interested in his beard.
