1. The Hipforums announces it first ever fundraiser. After nearly 30 years online, we must ask our members and guests to help support the website. Thanks to years of ongoing financial support of our members, advertisers and volunteer admin staff, we have been able to keep the forums alive.

    Now we must ask for help as available funds have all been used for our Internet server and other fees.

    So please donate any amount to our PayPal account donate@Hipforum.com to keep the site going. If we can get enough for a few months fees, we won't need to nag you again!

    You could also subscribe to the forums and get an upgrade to Supporter or Lifetime Supporter here

    You can dismiss this message by clicking on the X in the upper right corner.

    Thanks! The Hipforums Staff

    I was lucky enough to catch Tommy Emmanuel live a few months back. He played in the back room of a pub to about 40 people and it was unreal. Just an acoustic guitar and he could compete with any of them shredders and even Hendrix for sheer technique. He was using feedback and he would drum on the wood of the guitar to create really cool sounds....like a jungle, or a storm..

    He's out on his own, and the only way for someone to understand my post would be to catch him live themselves.

    And that I have as well... I took a clinic which featured him and Stephen Bennett this year. He's a private clinician... he doesn't endorse anyone besides Maton... unlike people such as Steven King, Doyle Dykes, and Leo Kottke do with Taylor... well, Kottke isn't a clinician, but the other two are... he does a few clinics with Mark Hanson as well... he's awesome.
