Just WOW !!! HOLY GUITAR PLAYING !!!
What an amazing young gentleman.
5 colors in her hair with McFly at the Palladium was by far my favorite - but he is a prodigy for sure.
It makes me me want to just put my guitars in the closet - he was that good.
Thanks for sharing.
A fantastic way to end the week.
Hope you are healthy and well and I hope our cuntry starts to ease back to a sense of normalcy.

Re: Minor Idea. (*its mellow guys) (2 replies, posted in My local band and me)
Beamer - I was thinking the exact thing as Keepitreal - very dreamlike. Reminds of something Moody Blues might have come up with.
I'd be glad to mess a round and attempt some lyrics if you would like- if not - I will wait for your finished product and go off to dreamland.
Nice job
