Most people are better than me at playing the guitar.

But yeah, that's a great song.  What he's doing isn't actually as hard as it looks, though.  I mean, it's hard, just not quite as hard as it looks.  I still can't do it effectively, but that's to some part due to the fact that my only acoustic guitar is old, abused, never gets restrung, and doesn't even live with me anymore since I have no room for it.  Sadness.  But yeah, I suck.  Andy Mckee is pretty awesome.  I don't like all of his music, but I do love that song like crazy.

I was just listening to more of his stuff, this guy rocks. He's amazing. Been watching a bunch of his vids on YouTube.

There are a couple other guys who use that style of playing.  It's pretty cool, but a lot of it sounds the same.  I've always liked Trace Bundy's version of Pachelbel's Canon. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N9to1auUNTk)

Pachelbel's Canon.  Funny you should bring up this youtube video.  Yesterday, my daughter was laughing hysterically watching this rant about his Canon (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JdxkVQy7QLM).  I guess it sucks to play the cello part.
