Title: Thought this was pretty cool

Ewan Dobson Time 2 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eXqPYte8tvc).  Who would have thought you could play Trance Music on an acoustic guitar.  This guy is awesome, even if he is Canadian.  ;)

I have to say I found that amazing. I wonder now if my youth was mispent. Heck I bet he's never killed a dragon ....

I'll swap you your man for one of my mine Jon Sayles (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qj8J9YLTDgQ). Different style I know, but I like my music at times to be older. I'm a big fan of John Dowland (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jkRrzAo9Wl4), have used his music played by Jon Sayles (http://www.jsayles.com/familypages/earlymusic.htm) a lot in my mods (don't watch the Dowland link, listen, the woman is very distracting).

All Jon Sayles work is creative commons, there is a lot of good resource there.

Did I say killed ... I meant hugged. An altogether more dangerous pastime.

Depends a lot on the dragon of course  :)

I hear the red ones like a hug but they're very hard to get your arms around and tend to be ticklish.

I quite enjoy a pot of tea and fresh cream scone.

It's actually an acoustic with an electric connection with a distortion pedal, but still damn cool.

Yeah I know it's an acoustic with pick-up, also he uses a delay. I just wondered what make guitar it is, it has a really nice warm tone. ;)

I think it's a Taylor, but don't quote me on that.

Some recommendations:

Michael Hedges (Aerial Boundaries), Bensusan, John McLaughlin.

Just for starters.
