any chance of putting Bad Backs on ?

[mattmarriottacoustic]

It is a possibility! Just need to get the right footage from the right performance!

[stevalianarbone]

You got me right In the zone Matt, this is brilliant!

[chmanbass]

hey matt, i saw you play at the grapes in stafford a while back your ridiculously good and you should be famous! :P i think you should try doing a cover of Andy Mckee - Drifting , should be right up your street

[mattmarriottacoustic]

Thanks mate, very much appreciated! I do play Drifting and have taught it to a couple of pupils, but I haven't played it live as I do fear a backlog of people saying that I'm just jumping on the bandwagon. But then it is THE modern day percussive acoustic guitar tune... all those millions of viewers can't be wrong... maybe I should play it!!

[chmanbass]

fair enough, but not anyone can do it :P

Best song on the album thanks matt for introducing me to percussive acoustic

[mattmarriottacoustic]

You are quite welcome! Eric Roche introduced me to it at the NEC in 2002 I think it was. I remember my jaw being firmly rooted to the floor that day...

[UncleBobW]

Another great piece of writing and playing! Your are an inspiration Matt.

Bob

Thanks Bob, comments much appreciated! It's amazing that a tune inspired by dance music at the gym can work so well!
