Dayum! I can't think of any other pair of guitarists whose playing I respect and admire more, or would be more thrilled to see:

Tommy Emmanuel Announces Fall Tour with Special Guest Jerry Douglas

It's about a 4-hour car ride to either Vegas or San Luis Obispo from here, which means back pain from hell...but that's why God invented oxy. If I can get decent seats for Mrs. Vito and me, I wanna do it.

Do it! You will regret it if you don't. Yes the pain will be killer but so will the show and you know it. Let us know how it goes.

Brothah Blackhorse:

HFS! (family-friendly code for "Holy Fargin' Shite")

See now...while it's a whole 'nother universe from Tommy & Jerry, the combination of Chet, Earl & George is one o' those dream combos that transcends any of the juvenile (or maybe infantile?) kinds of "better than" comparisons that humanoids of tragically deficient intellect and aesthetic capacity are so fond in blathering about in an interminable infestation of "Top Ten __(fill in prejudice category)__" or "The Absolute Best __(whatever)__ Of All Time" that make YouTube a True Democracy<img class="emojione" alt="™️" title=":tm:" title=":tm:" src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/emojione/assets/png/2122.png?v=2.2.7"/>...by which I mean it includes the sewage along with the sublime.

Anyhow, the Chet, Earl & George video is clearly on the sublime end of the spectrum. I can't watch it while I'm sitting here because I can't sit here for that long right now, but I've watched enough of it to know that now I hafta watch the whole doggone thang, dammit.  :twisted:

And I can't just watch it...no; that would be too easy. Now I've gotta watch it with guitar in hand, because there's so much to learn from every one of these masters. See what you've done? ...you evil bastidge, you...

...by which I mean, of course, thanks a bazillion for posting it, amigo. :mrgreen:

p.s. I've never worked with Chet or Earl (as far as I can recall), but I had the honor of mixing stage monitors for George Benson at Carnegie Hall, back in 1975...an incredible show!
