Hi Tommy it has been a long time since we lats met. I gave up performing over 6 years ago after a fear of flying took a hold on me. I then turned to teaching which has been good to me. Last year I was a VIP guest at Buddy Holly's 75th Birthday party in Hollywood so aftre some therapy I went and got the bug to get out playing again. I have gone back to my routes and put together a 4 piece all girl rock instrumental guitar band. playing the music of The Shadows and The Ventures and others also. I have called the band THE CRICKETTES as it was the Buddy concert that inspired me to get out playing again. We played our first theatre concert as guest of a Shaows tribute band on the 1st September and it went down well. We have 2 more guest spots this year and then next year a few theatre concerts where we play the first half of the show. The girls I have found are all great but it has not been easy finding talented girls for the band. There are some videos up on my web site. Please check it out if you get the cahnce. Love Zoe xx

Tommy,
Amazing performance last night at the Clayton center- Especially considering you were feeling under the weather. I heard of you while on a G3 website a few months ago and have since sold my electric gear so I can concentrate on my acoustic and songwriting skills. I think I have watched every YouTube video with your name on it. Thank yo so much for your inspiration! I was really impressed by your continued thoughts on given back and helping support PBS.

You are my new favorite musician. I havent been inspired like this since SRV died when I was in the 6th grade which is when I decided I learn the guitar.

Please keep sharing your love of music. I will come see you again next month in Japan! Hope you feel better quickly!

With warmest regards
Jason

Saw you last night in Clayton. What an incredible human being you are sir. I never enjoyed anything so much in my life though I suspect you enjoyed it more yourself. God Bless.

Hello Mr. Emmanuel, my guitar teacher and I are huge fans of yours, you are my biggest inspiration for guitar and I was wondering if maybe you could perform at my school sometime next year, if it's not too much trouble that is. It would mean the world if you could. Please respond

Hello Tommy. Since I first saw you at this theatre in Stockholm, Sweden, I've admire your guitarplaying ever since. My question is what kind of strings you're using ? Gauge, brand etc.
Thankful for answering this..

Dear Mr. Emmanuel,
I just saw your concert in the little town of Clayton, NC. It, no, you, were fantastic. You played a song which had been a favorite of my sister and she would have loved to hear it the way you played it. I'm certain you have numerous accolades about your incredible talent, your generosity of spirit, and your appreciation of those who stop for a moment in their busy lives and come spend some time with you.

Thank you for a glorious musical experience. I'm a fan.

Tommy, Just left your show at the Clayton Center tonight. It was superb, as always. Did you notice the connections people made with each other during the time they were listening to you? All around me, people were leaning against or hugging loved ones while watching. Not only does your music connect people with you, it connects your audience with one another. You have a spiritual gift as well as a musical one. Your presence is a blessing in many lives. Thank you for what you give to us. And thank you for all the speaking you did tonight, in spite of being sick. Your stories and humor are always a favorite part of your concerts for me. Wishes for healing to you - from one of the attendees from Virginia

Hello Tommy Emmanuel! My name is Diogo Grade, I'm 19 years old and I'm from Portugal.
I play the classical guitar since my 3, 4 years old but i've just started to play acoustic guitar about one year ago when i found your job as a musician.
I really like your songs and the way you play them and I even know how to play some of them like The Mighty Mouse, Locomotivation, Mombasa..
Actually I'm studying medicine in Czech Republic and I will go to your concert in Prague on November 16th and I really want to know if it would be possible to meet you after the concert to learn something more about your technique and to listen to your opinion about me playing one or two of your songs.
It would be very nice!

Best regards and keep playing always!
