The Guitar

I took a shot on a guitar tonight that is left in a local pub, and honestly, it just seems absolutely impossible! How the hell do they do it?? Especially solo. It is incredible.. Here is a vid I took recently of a guy who CAN do it, and wow! This guy was amazing!

I'd love to be able to play the Guitar, i'm a big fan of Noel Gallagher, when he does things like Talk Tonight, Half The World Away, Masterplan etc solo its awesome, really talented.

I play too.
took it up 1987 at 14.
played first gig Jan 1990 and last gig Sept 2009 so just short of 20 years' gigging experience.

Getting a bit old for all the hassle of carting gear about, organising practices and finding good paying gigs.

Had some great times axe slinging though.

Its mind boggling how people know exacty where to push the strings in, doing it without looking!

I forgot those video's still existed. Woops.

That second video was on my first acoustic, awful guitar, never got around to fixing it, I'm sure it's still kicking about somewhere.
