Two Of The World's BEST Acoustic Players In One Room! | Guitar Village

[@lw216316]

You may never play as well as Tommy or Mike but there is one thing you can do as well as them. You can ENJOY your playing (no matter your skill level) as much as they do! So enjoy what you can do and continue to learn. Be blessed.

Them doing shows is fine, but Mike and Tommy SHOULD record an ALBUM together. 20 songs, the ultimate acoustic experience. Please Mike and Tommy, do that.

It Cheers the soul to see Tommy Emmanuel so happy again.

[@MaryBethVieha]

Just saw Tommy in Fort Lauderdale and got to meet and talk with him. I was so blown away with his sheer joy and generosity. Changed my life!!

[@anoniem7062]

I can imagine. Tommy's attitude is every so humble. Just a great guy who happens to play the guitar virtuously, but that's not worth mentioning, if you'd ask Tommy, I'm sure. ☺

[@MaryBethVieha]

@@anoniem7062 So very true!!! He's just out there doing what he absolutely loves ... and is doing it HIS way!!! So glad he never compromised his talent!

[@mikesands2599]

I met Tommy and John Knowles when the played together at the Birchmere in VA a few years back. I dragged my sister along and she loved it! We had the chance to speak with these great musicians after the concert. So generous with their time and good nature. Wonderful, special people.

[@phughes4224]

Oh my. It just does not get better than this. Blessed to have watched it.

[@timothypotter2137]

Two of the best guitarists I've heard.

[@chickbowdrie4750]

I've lost count how many times I've gone back to this video just to hear this golden duo make the guitar come to life. Truly something special...

[@00708046]

As Mike said , Tommy can play anything . It's the exposure to different styles that let Tommy grow and let his accompliss grow as well. That fact that Tommy and Mike are both so skilled and aware of feelings allows them both to move in so many directions , even uncharted directions . I know that they are enjoying the exchange. It's just so great !

You can see that Mike just adores Tommy, and Tommy genuinely enjoys the experience. I just can't stop smiling.

[@carliniguitar]

Saw both of these guys in Bend, Oregon late 2022. Then I ran into Tommy while he was in line to buy a muffin at SeaTac airport in late February. I was heading to Italy and he was headed to London "to be grandad" - which, it seems, was the same trip that this performance was filmed over. Super nice, down to earth. I almost asked for a photo with him, but decided not to be that guy, and instead just thanked him for being so inspiring. What a treat to meet the legend in person.

[@andreprovost7738]

I'm a musician and I'm a good guitar player. The quality of that performance is totaly out of this world! I listended both of you on different videos, I take some Tommy's lecons on Internet, but the chemistry of you two is beautifull. Love you guys 🙂

[@michaeldavey8098]

Yep i like to think i have some measure of musical insight. I too play, (badly by their standards ) however these two have an unbelievable congruence utterly astounding and humble with it.

[@MexicoAdventurer]

Two of my favorite guitar players.

[@MJ-tg7wv]

Fabulous - I have been lucky enough to see Tommy live in the UK 3 times - once, when I tried to get tickets for the Turner Sims hall in Southampton, I was told they were sold out and would I like to go on a list for any seats that might come up. I said yes but thinking nothing would come of it. I then got a phone call and was told I could get tickets in row AA. So went, really happy to get any seats. Imagine my surprise when I found that these seats were actually on the stage to one side!!! So, we were front row, on the stage and Tommy about 10 feet away!!!!! Beyond awesome!

[@angusmoffat]

Imagine acoustic guitar masters like Mike Dawes and Tommy Emmanuel not being in this world. Neither can I.

It's good that Mike lets Tommy take the lead. They mesh just fine.

[@josephlangham9900]

I love starting at 1:17 - 1:22 , Mike played a passing chord that added a different feel for Tommy and Mike's face was like "hmm that worked out!" Tommy looks over and responds with "yeah that was nice!" You can tell they truly love what they're doing, makes me smile.

[@alexforshaw]

That was utterly fabulous! What a great couple of guys, such chemistry between them.

[@DavidSchilter]

These two are such fun to watch. Whether through their notes or their words, they are great storytellers. And you gotta love their chemistry!

[@loombaron]

its unbelievable the amazing palette of sounds an acoustic guitar can project when played by gifted musicians. Most people only do basic chords or only use it to acompany themselves while singing. When you see this performance you start to get why the manufactures care so much for the selection of the woods, the strings quality, the sonority, all the engineering and craftmanship dedicated to a guitar is destined for perfomances like this.

[@orlandofernandes4790]

Are we in heaven? It's so,so,so,so beautiful!

[@deeforty]

Tommy has always been one of those guys who I know I'll never in a million years be as good as, but I'm totally fine with that, and Mike is just mind blowing everytime I see him play, these are 2 of the best, surely. Good for the soul.

[@mikekim1219]

Give yourself credit. You can probably play like him if you practice about 99 years 😀

[@Sevi-Swiss]

Two different generation of guitar players and they fit so well. So great !

[@teamtamer]

It's a blast to see two accomplished masters bounce off each other so vibrantly. Dawes is clearly comfortable in the percussive/bass/rythym role, which I think must highlight his achievements as a solo artist. Tommy needs no encouragement to fly across the canvas that Dawes gives him. An amazing partnership.

[@Fallub]

That Fields of Gold might have been the best acoustic song I have ever heard.

[@SingSurfStrum]

The freedom of the jam and the essence of musical joy 👌

What beautiful playing. Guitar Village is such a great guitar shop. I travelled a few 100 miles there to get a bucket list acoustic about 15 years ago, because I knew they had all the ones I wanted to try, and would be able to play them side by side. Staff couldn’t have been nicer or more accommodating, and I got a Martin D28 that still fills my heart with joy whenever I pick it up. Love those guys, and love that store.

[@orionmec]

I have loved Tommy's playing for MANY years... and Mike for the last few years... Together they are so great!

The alchemy between those guys is outstanding. 2 or maybe 3 generations separate them in age, but they are one in music. This is just great, man. I'm wordless.
