6. This sounds like a guy named Tony Geballe, 12 string guitarist,

writer, producer. No youtubes of him that I know of, he worked with Robert Fripp/ King Crimson.

His one cd release, "Native of the Rain" is solo 12-string acoustic, superb.

3. A million guitars are going in the fireplace due to MY lil' RUSSIAN GUITAR HERO

(That is some tasty playing by Lofgren btw)

When I assess my suckage, I watch this kids videos. It reminds me that my guitars might as well be a stamp collection, or some rusty guns hidden in a closet or drawer.

I have never seen anybody shred like this kid. NO-FUCKING-BODY. (0:22 onward)
