I was extremely fortunate enough to meet Tommy in person at the Toronto show on May 14, 2010. He played 'Since We Met' right before my very eyes. Not only did he play it, he signed my guitar as well!

Thanks Tommy. I WILL get to work...little does he know how much that actually relates to me at the time!

This is what I love about Tommy, there's no EGO or drink or drugs or look at me I'm a STAR, not only is he the best guitarist in the world, but he's the most HUMBLE man to walk the face of the earth. When he comes to my home town "Belfast" he meets us before the show and after and talks to us about playing, it's like talking to a brother, WHAT A GUY!

Tommy is so smooth and precise in his playing, and what a gentleman.

[AlcaAMV]

There's not many entertainers who make time for people like this. What a great guy.

[modelcitizen]

He plays those wild chord inversions so crisply and cleanly its insane. What an absolute monster.

[hillbillymanjackson]

[ductritran]

Tommy is an Aussie icon down to earth who very generous to the young generation, he also one of the greatest guitarist of the world today .

[JackKincaid..]

13 years late but Tommy is such a nice guy and so damned talented. His gift is truly from above..

[turnerthemanc]

well, this disproves the old saying "never meet your heroes". What a nice guy.

[adgersparky]

I find it so impressive how perfect Tommy’s foot is tapping like a metronome. Surprisingly hard to be able to do that so in time

[sescher]

Tommy is such a class act. I was fortunate to have a front row seat at a small venue. Changed my whole outlook on music

[corporatepresident]

Listening to the Master play. This is awesome.

[krommebananen]

Caught myself watching Tommy again whilst i should be studying... Nice lasts words for the camera; get to work!

[DanSistos]

Only Tommy can grab someone else’s guitar and play flawlessly. What an amazing talent and a class act.

[martymcpeak]

Tommy is such a melodic player. in everything he does he never leaves the melody alone.

[robertsaca]

Tommy, apart from being one of if not the best guitarist ever, is also the nicest person ever. What a gentleman.

The more I see and hear Tommy Emanuel interact with others, reflect on his musical interpretation and his delivery to the audience, he makes me love music as I have not felt in over half a century. He is a guide through this magical dimension, and he conjures up friends like Chet Atkins and Tony Rice as though performing for a whole cast of talent. The more I hear, the more there is to discover in Tommy.

[manband]

I cry every time I watch this video. There's magic in his music.

[grantritchey]

I've had the pleasure, no, ! the privilege, of being in the audience hearing this humble genius play three times. He is more than all of the parts you hear. Hard to put in words. YES! He's a genius. But, he's even a better person. There's little ego I can find . One of the finest humans on our planet.

[davidmann]

A true gentleman. Not to mention the best guitar player on the planet
