Tommy Emmanuel CGP

Tommy,
I saw you perform last night at the Rex theatre here in Pittsburgh Your performance was beyond words. I became emotional as you sang the song about your Dad. And your encore tune seemed to come strait from the angel band ... as if Chet, Doc and Merle were right there to play along with you. I feel a special closeness to you as your guitar heros are my own. I thank you very sincerely for an evening that will long be cherished and remembered. By the way ... I do a little gig at the local coffee house. I couldn't immagine not playing even in my humble way. As you said last night "How wonderful it is to be in the Happy business".the very best to you and yours.

I was truley in the presents of greatness and I will never forget the experience as long as I live. God Bless you and all you do.

Thanks Tommy, I love your music. I listen to your CDs every morning on my way to work, and it makes me happy.

You are so generous to share your music - I have Certified Gems and the Little by Little DVDs, and have been practising for two years. I can finally play 1 song all the way through! (Papa George, very slowly).Still haven't got the strum right. but it is so much fun. It would have taken me years to figure that out on my own, so thanks.

Here is a couple of links of my 15 year old nephew strumming a couple of tunes..only 1min 30 sec each....You are probably in the top of 3 of his guitar idols. I wanted to share with you. He watches your videos intently looking for new licks.

My greetings, teacher. I'm from Venezuela I thank you for your music has always been an inspiration for me, I love playing the guitar more than anything else though in this country there is very little support for this genre of music and recorded my first guitar instrumental album . my dream is to meet in person some day and listen to my songs, I would like you to give a concert in Venezuela would be amazing, consider there are many people here who love your music. Greetings and god bless you

Hey! Looking forward to seeing you up in Maine. Saw you this year in Charlotte with a great young harmonica player - amazing show!
Thanks,
Paul

Mr. Emmanuel


So looking forward to seeing you on June 29 in Spokane. I watch you on youtube daily. I am a begging guitar player (5 months) and will be turning 60 13 days after your performance. I will be in the front row to your left wearing a huge smile. I will be at the meet and greet and would love to have you sign my guitar, if you would please. I used to play 10 years ago but had to quite almost immediately after starting. I dream of playing in front of an audience someday (when I no longer stink at playing). I consider you to be the greatest guitarist in the world.

Hey Tommy - just wanted to tell you that you have completely influenced my son in his pursuit of guitar. You are truly an amazing musician (with a good attitude!)...

Anyway - my wife, two sons and myself are looking forward to seeing you in Phoenixville tomorrow night!

Safe travels and keep up the good work. Your friends in West Chester, PA

The three greatest music experiences of my life are as follows:
In order of occurance:
1. I got see Andre Segovia before he passed away.
2. I got to do sound for Jeff Baxter (Doobie Bros.) at the Playboy Mansion.
3. I met with you at a seminar in Carlsbad, CA.

My life is now complete!
Thank You!
