Tommy Emmanuel - Guitar Boogie

The last one didn't get enough votes so i was hesitant on uploading this.. but what the heck... This is one of the longer pieces, twice that of others. Before this, he was talking about how he and his brother, Phil wanted to be electric guitarists (which explains that "neck bending" thingy he did during the prelude). Be patient and wait till he gets to the bass lines, that's where things get interesting. Enjoy.

@Antigone, what he did in the beginning is called a prelude. Lots of musicians do preludes before the main piece comes in. Here's the dictionary extract of prelude in musical context.

Prelude
Music.
a. a relatively short, independent instrumental composition, free in form and resembling an improvisation.
b. a piece that precedes a more important movement.
c. the overture to an opera.
d. an independent piece, of moderate length, sometimes used as an introduction to a fugue.

"and also its just wanking on the guitar.no substance.just showing off"

Btw, it takes skills to be able to show off and he sure as hell has them, but when everyone knows he has those skills, its no longer called showing off... its an entertaining performance. Can you hear the audience laugh, clap and cheer along?

I guess the only thing here lacking substance is your post. You obviously have no idea how difficult such "wanking on the guitar" really is.
