I've never understood the "he makes me want to quit" mentality, which most aspiring musicians have after viewing a player on this caliber. I'm the exact opposite; all I want to do after watching this is pick up a guitar. Vic Wooten and Bela Fleck motivated me to play music in the first place. Oh well, I'm weird.

Do you think there is a possibility that Kaki King and Justin King are related? Leo Kottke is probably their illegitimate father.

people who would want to quit after watching that shouldn't be playing guitar in the first place

figure it out on your own :P fatjack and elliot were talking about it in the other thread it was posted in...tabs won't tell you the technique. it'll take a damn good long time to learn/figure out..but it'll be far more rewarding. :)

How the hell is he getting that much sound out of the guitar at some point? I'm amazed by that.
