New Videos to Check Out
I’ve found my new guitar hero, and his name is Andy McKee. He, like another artist i’ve recently recommended, makes his musical living by using a style of playing called “finger-tapping.” If you watch a couple of his videos, you’ll quickly figure out why it is called that. I highly recommend “Drifting,” “For My Father,” and “Tight Trite Night.” You can see nearly all his stuff on my vod-pod (it is in the bottom left corner of my blog), or click on his picture to go to his record label. Enjoy!
Update: For those of you who don’t care for finger-tapping or are simply ready for a change of pace, check out the Lindsey Buckingham video “Big Love” i uploaded. If you are more a traditional finger-pickin’ kind of guy or gal, you’ll love this.
Pop Quiz: Which famous band did (does?) he play for?

My Fleetwood Mac blog, Heroes Are Hard To Find is conducting a contest in honor of Lindsey Buckingham’s new album, Gift Of Screws (09.16.08). I thought it might be of interest to you or your readers!
