Tommy Emmanuel CGP

Hey Tommy - really looking forward to your visit to Aberdeen in March. We came to see you in Perth (Scotland!) a couple of years ago and that was the first time I'd heard 'Those Who Wait' - what a beautiful, evocative piece. Would love to hear it again if you can work it into the set list for the Lemon Tree.

Blessings...

Tommy, We just returned to Virginia from our trip to Elizabetown, KY. It was our first time seeing you live...WOW!! We hope to be back next year for your 12th consecutive Tommyfest. The workshop on Saturday morning was fun and we especially appreciated how you showcased some of the participant's talent as well. During intermission at the Saturday night show I got Parker Hastings' autograph. We got a lick out of his performance. Thank you very much for a truely memorable weekend and for sharing your gift in such a personal way. Safe travels and may God bless you!

Hi Tommy

Sent this on facebook as well, hoping you see this before you come to Atlanta!

I have a favor to ask of you.

I am taking some friends of mine to see you on Feb 23rd in Atlanta.

Their 16 year old daughter is on the mend from a deadly serious brain tumor. Her name is Anna Mott and her favorite color is purple. She is doing chemo now, and it is really beating her down with the nausea.

One of the things my friends did was make a youtube to cheer up her family. I was in charge of the music!

Here is is:

Anna is in the video a few places, 1:30 is a good picture, as is the last picture.

My favor – could you please play “Happy Again” and/or “Antonella’s Birthday” and dedicate it to Anna Mott? It would be a real lift to the family. If you play only one, "Antonella's Birthday" would be preferred.

Thank you for your music - you bring so much joy to a lot of people!

ps - Both you and Joscho signed my then 12 year old son's guitar back in 2006 at the CAAS - he was so proud to get y'alls autograph!
He ended up spending most of his time hanging out with Gareth Pearson and Gary Dawson. A great memory for him!

We really enjoyed seeing Tommy perform in Lafayette and E-town. The stage was smokin' Friday night! Thank-you for the ispiration to keep learning and playing the guitar.

Hi Tommy,

I saw you in Wichita in 2009 and you were fantastic. I wanted to take my wife to see you in Atlanta next Saturday but unfortunately the concert is sold out here. Any suggestions ?

Hi Tommy,

My wife and I attended your show in Tucson Arizona on Feb 12 and it was the best concert i have ever seen. We were both blown away at your talent and passion for music. Please come back and see us again.
Can you tell us when your song Blood brother will hit itunes or cd?

Once again thank you for such a wonderful evening and please come back soon.

I've never had the liberty of having a teacher and after watching your certified gems *boy did that sound wrong* I've felt some improvements. Enjoyed it truly. Thank you.

Hi Tommy,

Caught one of your specials on my local PBS station. It was a great show and has inspired me to start playing guitar. I'm 51 and have been playing 5-string Banjo for a couple of years. Looking forward to seeing you in person some day or on TV.

Best Regards

Tommy, thanks for one of the best and most memorable shows I have ever seen at the Long Center last night. You have wonderful gifts and talents and a will to share them with us. many blessings
