Wow, I thought these clinic excerpts had disappeared! I'm the guy who taped this. Thanks to you for keeping it alive, and to my friend Matt -- who was there -- for finding this and sharing it on facebook. Thanks to Jenn for doing the initial formatting a few years back to take this 'from tape to Tube'. This was videoed in Albany, NY, 'Rocktober' 27th, '95, @ New Music. The original Video8 tape is literally feet away in another room as I type. I missed Paul drumming at the end. He's the best!

Where did you tape this? I saw him perform it at the National Guitar Summer Workshop, probably in '95. He played it once in our small seminar room. Then he ripped it onstage in front of the whole camp at night. It was incredible in person.

What a vocal! Love it..

He did the same tune, and wore the exact same sweater in Virginia Beach, probably right around the same time. Thanks for posting! I was blown away at how he made this lame tune sound so cool!!!
