[@DrMcFoo]

This man has an amazing God given talent, thats for sure. Outstanding performance Eric Darius

[@kathleenmclin2269]

Speechless!! Outstanding.....Genius!!!! Brilliant!!!!

[@mrface417]

no talent just hard work

[@DrMcFoo]

@@mrface417 No talent? You must be blind or deaf or lol. Obviously there is years of experience here but it takes talent to be able to play so naturally

[@mrface417]

@@DrMcFoo my apologies if that sounded crude it was my way of complimenting the artist in saying that he put 1000,s of hours hard work to get that good, and that talent only gets you so far

[@Kengee_music446]

This performance was amazing. Friday night at Martini Blu was my first time seeing Eric perform, and I am just so inspired. The way he connects with his instrument and fully expresses himself with no holding back is just simply amazing. His stage presence, skill, and passion is so pure.
