Hey Michael - (audio begins at 1'40") I wanted to share Steve Kimock with you, not exactly as a react request, but more as a gift to put in your pocket and take with you when you have the time and inclination and I didn't know how better to do it. He's been my favorite guitarist for a long time now and I don't even know how to put into words why that is. I've listened to this concert at least annually for over 20 years. It's both incredible and very unique. Steve has a way of only ever playing the exactly correct sounds. His tone is perfect. The dude is a wizard. There's some additional poor quality video of the show here (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lzzX8kRzWao&t=2184s) and the complete show is available to listen to here (https://archive.org/details/skps2002-11-24.shnf). I really hope you find the time to enjoy it. Also, I wanted to say thank you for the work you do. I don't even play the guitar, but your reactions help me to better understand why I love the music I do, and to discover new music I didn't know I'd like. Respect.

Hi Micheal,
The Brad Cox band has been creating some amazing stuff, and this video is awesome. I'd love to hear your thoughts on both the lyrics and the lead guitar. They're an Australian country band with a unique group of musicians. I highly recommend checking out their work, but for now, enjoy this video.
Keep Strumming,
Chris C.
Hello Michael Palmisano and fans,
If you weren't a Marcus King fan before this video, I can certainly guarantee that you will be afterwards! Marcus King has always been one of my favourite artist, however, as his career has progressed I seem to fall back on some of his classics and his renditions of other famous song. Within this video, Marcus's incredible playing on a magnificent vintage tele and amp is accompanied by thunderous vocals and I believe it would be super valuable for you to breakdown how he creates this captivating experience for the audience. Thank you for everything Michael and best wishes for the future,
Warm regards from a massive fan of GuitarGate,
Hugo van den Brink
Great cover of Bob Dylans My Back Pages by the master Carl Verheyen. His solo is technically amazing and tasty as hell. He never ceases to amaze me.
I see a few others have requested this band, but I can't recall you ever reacting to them. They have become one of my favorite bands over the past few years. A lot of people say they are Australia's version of Tool, and while I sort of agree, they definitely have their own thing going on. I don't know if you'll remember me harassing you about reacting to Punch Brothers, but this band has a couple of songs that I could easily see Punch Brothers doing a stripped down version of. They are incredible and worth a listen!
