I love these videos from Tommy meeting the fans. A real gentleman with real people ...G...

[@xsamitt]

This man is not only a genius,but generous as well. Bless him.

[@TheMickey1943]

Tommy is not just an amazing musician, he is even a better person. Great to see so many young guitarist!! I have seen him live four times in the USA, including Meet and Greet, and there is very few young people there. The talent of these young guitarist playing for Tommy was just great. Tommy has signed all guitars, except my EC Strat. I hope to see him again soon.

Tommy is the coolist ,most humble dude on the planet. Long live TE

[@maksicar]

He and his guitar buddy, Frank Vignola are true gentlemen,who inspire others to play music and have fun doing it.

[@MrWouterDijkstra]

Thanks for posting, im the first lucky guy that got his guitar signed, the show was awesome too! :D

[@johnn4314]

So as I'm writing there's a concert in three days and he's coming to my town but there's no back stage or anything. I was thinking of throwing my guitar up there and begging for him to sign it mid concert lol. Tommys so frickin cool. If he wasn't a guitarist I would like him, but the fact that he's the best and still humble is like the icing on the cake.

[@coasterfreak46]

Here in The Netherlands he usually plays at not really big venues, you can just bring your guitar and quite often you can get it signed before the show or during the break :)

[@Despond]

Tommy Emmanuelle learning over and looking at your hands as you play... bravo that takes courage. I am a fantastic guitarist but I would probably crumble under his masterful gaze.

[@mightysnoro]

The intro song is called Back On Terra Firma. It's written by John Jorgenson and originally performed by his group The Hellecasters on their first record. Tommy and Phil Emmanuel covered it.

[@stievelien]

awesome to see Tommy again, same feeling as last friday and so nice he listened to bas his song and ofcourse mine :D and he just did it all again! XD and it was so nice to meet Wim den Herder & Lars de Rijck too :D

[@sjb523]

Always graceful and warm- the man and his music.

[@stievelien]

it is called Mater Nostra, I Composed it a while ago. It is tuned in tall fidler tuning with the capo on the 5th fret.

[@sjb523]

The one and only TE. Gracious beyond repair!

[@joshua1998b]

The name is 'Halfway Home' by Tommy Emmanuel! Have fun listening!

[@adoreslaurel]

How many professionals take time out to give something back to the fans,reminds me of the old saying "Be nice to people on the way up,cause you sure are going to meet em on the way down"

[@ChristiaanBurgel]

I still cant believe ive met him!

[@promod114]

[@pasha355]

[@EddievanderMeer]

That's me at 21:40 Leuke filmpje!

[@thermalegoogle]

that's Wim Den Herder, you can find him on youtube, that's one of his tunes. Not sure about the exact title of this song but if you look him up you'll find it easily on his channel he has an interesting style, superimposing lines with only a pick in his right hand

[@Spencerianism]

And you really look like Wesley Crusher from Star Trek TNG. You play awesome too..:)

[@DC180]

Tony is a master

[@orinas3]

Yeah i heard that too :D

[@Dieselsdog3]

and I've really only been playing guitar since Xmas 2012!

[@vuesnat]

@dudeforlive when have your TE ticket write the tour Manager an Email that you would like to meet tommy Emmanuel before the concert. And the tour manager will arrange something for you.Thats what I did at two concerts and it worked.

[@JoshuaRowGuitarist]

Terra Firma. From the Terra Firma joint album between tommy and phil.

[@BaroVince]

Hi! What's the song the guy is playing at 1mn26? And thanks for the video! ;-)

[@kayojanssens]

What is the name of the tuning that one guy wrote a song in right after the funeral thing ? Really like the sound of that tuning ... So if anybody can tell me. Thanks !

[@stievelien]

it is called Mater Nostra, i Composed it :)

[@viktor666ism]

I really please everybody who knows the song at the beginnig PLEASE tell me!

[@coasterfreak46]

@dudeforlive eigenlijk moet je het van te voren aangeven, als het goed is staat het email adres van z'n tour manager ergens op z'n site en daarbij kun je ernaar vragen. ik zorg gewoon dat ik altijd meer dan een uur voor de show ofzo er al ben en dan zie ik vanzelf wel of ik een meet & greet kan krijgen :)

[@arsenalca]

Tall Fiddler. Got me for a second, too.

[@DonRico333]

what is the name of the song at the beg of the video ? please!

[@ricsikek]

[@coasterfreak46]

@stievelien Ja was idd wel gaaf dat om Win den Herder en Lars de Rijck te spreken :)

[@TwiceScooter]

who is the person who played the song at 07:35 ?

[@stievelien]

it was not a shock effect, i composed it for someone els. I just recorded my first album :).

[@ChristopherDowning]

You'd be surprised at how accessable most non-rock and pop musicians are. Especially if you go to something like Steve Kuafman's Kamp where you get taught by lots of greats.

[@G3r0n1mo]

20:15 - "I can do it so its not difficult' lol Tommy

[@DanielaGonzalezguitarforfun]

what is the name of the song the guy is playing? at the beginning?

[@vidmantastelksnys9066]

Halfway Home

[@DanielaGonzalezguitarforfun]

thank you!

[@tomlebbink]

20:40 is me :)

[@iankyoko]

I often think he might ding someone else's guitar. But he never does!

[@sjb523]

If they're lucky.

[@Etmetal08]

Id be too scared to let Tommy play my guitar she might not want to come back!! lol

[@CrazyHenkie777]

Wow stardom is hard work, poor man...

[@CrazyHenkie777]

lol that's what I heard also

[@LeatherCladVegan]

Ja! Vet van der riffligft! Eek booert der van blass dorf odeon aber jak jak avjeiderbandt af!

[@Kylestrains93]

BB

[@briangan5869]

Terra Firma

[@Smullet90]

I don't think that guy (10 minutes or so in) has been playing for only one year. Trying to use shock effect to make an impression. Too much theatrics for my taste. "A dear friend of mine lost his grandma". Seriously man? C'mon. Good song though.

[@stievelien]

no, tall fidler tuning,,,

[@yimmiytube]

sit down
