Live from the Balboa (full show) l Tommy Emmanuel

[@77goanywhere]

When Tommy buys a new guitar he sits down with it and has a long conversation with it and tells it that it is going to have a hard life, but will spend most of it in heaven.

[@escobarnaga3245]

Oh God...I have no words to describe this legend

[@leslorch7957]

GOAT…..greatest of all time me thinks

[@gloriagarrison8055]

I just finished watching the 2004 " This is Your Life ." from Australia. I have never seen his story presented. I know why he shares his soul with us in concert. I was at a concert in Cincinnati at a Catholic High School Auditorium with my Little Martin It was my 70th birthday.. I made it to the Meet and Greet and Tommy impressed me with his sincerity and he told me about his little daughter as he signed my Little Martin followed by singing and playing "Happy Birthday " ON MY GUITAR !! Even at 70 I was walking on air !! I count this as one of the highlights of my life.

[@garywhitt98]

Tommy says, “I don’t play because of the way it makes me feel. I play because of the way it makes you feel.” He’s a friend to music lovers everywhere.

[@gloveshacker]

He's the best. Simply.

[@anncarothers4481]

Hi, Tommy: met you at meet and greet at this concert. You made this the most remarkable joyous evening of my life. I still play therapeutic music for seniors. The gift lives on. Blessings. I love you. Thank you for every note you've touched.

Wonderful. That is the faidinkum guy he is. I met him A couple if times whilst studying at Southern Cross University in Lismore Australia. He really is a lovely person. The love comes through his playing. God bless you Tommy if you read this.

[@milos-ITMilosevicsimpathy1]

You see, that's is the most original what I heard from any musician.That will makes me leave the old well known music.Let this be new beginning of my new Musical listening and playing.Tell him that I really like him cause of this statement.

[@milos-ITMilosevicsimpathy1]

Tommy is GENIUS ❤

[@jimmycricket7385]

T.E. isn't just famous for his playing but for his personality. People love him.

[@sixstrings1490]

So proud to be an Aussie and have amazing talent like Tommy, and Phil (Rest in Peace Phil) Made the Guitar World a better place.

[@wladekwloszcz3803]

Rightfully so to be proud! Tommy's been hero for his Polish fans, for decades now! Who was Phil?

[@tommihail2178]

​@@wladekwloszcz3803Phil was Tommy's brother and a better Electric guitarist..Phil died from an asthma attack a few years ago..Google Tommy and Phil Emmanuel and you'll see what I mean.. Regards from Australia 🙋

[@jshsterlawrence9879]

Two words - Soul Food. Thanks Tommy and Friends. Pam Rose & Anthony Shape - what amazing voices.

[@milos-ITMilosevicsimpathy1]

Here We Go, Maestro ❤😊😊❤😂🎉😅❤

[@AlexisGitarre]

He's not a idol because of his insane and absolutely unbelievable playing but more so because of his never-ending love he shows with his instrument. Just watch his face and you see pure happiness.

[@coryCuc]

You're absolutely right. He loves playing. Love entertaining. Loves spreading his knowledge and joy of the guitar to anyone he meets. Not to mention he's one of the most humblest, not only musicians, but people, ever. Great person all around.

[@metrobytmobile6844]

Play that thing kid .

[@MohitDogra]

Real Magic....Surprise in every little phrase...

[@ritasalvadori4991]

Genius

[@taoepic7596]

[@marswabisabi8918]

Got tears in my eyes with Moonriver...

[@willscott6928]

The man makes the guitar sing!

[@steveraschella8233]

You have taken the guitar to places unimaginable...thank you for sharing your immense talents. You have to go down in the music history books

[@ursafan40]

There isn't a stage in the world that had more talent on it than then Balboa that night.

[@nandosainz]

This is Tommy!!

[@thomashamiltom]

I will never forget that night... i was there with my girlfriend at the time. It was Valentine’s day and this concert was the last thing she wanted to do that day but I dragged her out anyway. We almost broke up that night and you can see us 45:54 after she had been crying during the intermission. I wanted it to be a good night so badly and when silently watching tommy it was. Even still it was such an incredible memory..

[@johnatteo822]

Appreciate your music Tommy. You are a legend and will always be remembered. Cheers

[@cliffwest5617]

He's not just a guitar player. He is a creator , original sound arranger. A consumate entertainer. A one man band at times and he also plays well with others.

[@neiafoster2573]

Tommy Emmanuel: Il numero 1, per la tecnica, la simpatia, il CUORE!!! Grazie Barbara Trieste Italia:)

[@raystargazer]

Oh Nooooooo! I'm falling down another YT Tommy rabbit hole!! This guy is INSANELY GOOD!!! This concert is worth a million!!

[@BMR_Kismet]

[@jimmiecisco]

[@eleazarterrible8460]

I'm Filipino but i love the way you play guitar Tommy Emmanuel 🎸God Bless you more 🎶👏

[@adohoth6972]

When Tommy took the stage,he drives everyone out from this world to paradise...such a phenomenal player.

[@04Stargazer]

Such a talented guitarist. So lucky to have seen him in concert in 2019

[@hscottcpa]

I was there that night. I can’t believe 10 years have passed. I’ve seen you so many times since and each time you amaze me more and more!! Can’t wait until you’re back here. I’ll be in the audience - amazed and inspired as always!!

Great crowd reaction too. 👏🏻 👏🏻 👏🏻

[@ГалинаСердолик]

Oh , Tommy, you are a wizard !!! Cool!!! BRAVO!!!

[@truthseekerKJV]

This man is second to nobody on the guitar.

[@stevealvarez2826]

Funny to see other really good guitarists see him play some rifts and just go ....Holy Sh*t! His fingering is phenomenal.

[@emiliojosegraobenedi450]

He is the best of the bests.

[@janeweedon6335]

As Eric Clapton says so, that's good enough for me.

[@cherylwilliams904]

He's phenomenal. I thought this was live, like tonight! The advertisement made it seem like it. This was 2011. Still cool. I was Just hoping it was this year 2021, February. Premier it said so... I love this guy. Just found him because of Billy Strings! They play awesome together, well they play good with everyone 💕💟

[@DerekMacaroni]

Can we just take a second to appreciate the 7:8 polyrhythm he's playing in Locomotivation, with one hand?

[@kitana3977]

God gives us all some kind of talent to share with the world. Tommy knows that and lives accordingly. Blessing to all

[@Valtrach]

A pleasure to see the master at work. Thank you for a fantastic performance. long life and happiness from Canada.

[@richardgoss9097]

Who can follow this man on stage. No one.

[@seanfallon4580]

Joscho stephan , try him out 👌

[@stevebilliter]

@@seanfallon4580 He's good, but can he play those harmonics like Tommy does?

[@Jimmy-me3fe]

​@@stevebilliter Maybe not, but then again, he's probably the world's best living gypsy jazz player. Check out his covers with Tommy 'If i had you' and 'djangology'.

[@skateborg]

loves this guy. Hey Tommy!

[@asandiegoguy]

Moon river is a masterpiece!!

[@gerardguitarist]

There's a lot to be said about learning the Chet Atkins et al approach to guitar from the outset. Finding time to get a handle on it later, as I am, is a challenge as it will have to become an additional add on to your regular practice schedule. And it won't come easy. Especially if you have been only using a plectrum and have no fngerstyle experience. I am fluent with chord/melody, but this is a different Kitty. The Boom Chick aspect. Tommy is an absolute Master and has been for decades. I think it's really required to at least have a few numbers down with this style. He is such an inspiration for us.

[@christinataylor6572]

Love 💕 you Tommy. You’re the Absolute Best. Chris. ♥️🎼🎶♥️🥰🥀🙏Take care.

[@milos-ITMilosevicsimpathy1]

[@jeremyacton4569]

It is so cool to see guest artists with the great Tommy Emmanuel. I totally enjoyed the good fun vibe and awesome playing in this gig.

[@markmartin3221]

I saw him at the same theatre I believe 2016-17 the best the whole time

[@garrycole8909]

The problem I have is I can't watch the whole thing without picking up my guitar and playing it! He is the LOCOMOTIVATOR! Love ya Tommy!

[@paulvanderweyde6390]

Made me happy...😊

[@Jonjzi]

I love the contrasting expressions at 14:12. The one guy is really digging it so much he doesn't notice the camera, but the lady next to him is chilling and casts a knowing glance at the lense.

[@shaunm1030]

OMG!! Just phenomenal. Why did we have to wait 10 years to see/hear this!? Wow, just wow! Tears of joy from this wonderful performance. Never heard Pam Rose before but just love her voice.👍

[@robertlee8042]

Fabulous song. A more prosaic version of this theme but I can see how attractive it is. Not my thing, but I can see why it is popular.

[@stevealvarez2826]

He is an amazing man and guitarist. I saw him at the Palace of Fine Arts back in 2012; a gracious man.

[@TimSchafernak]
