This song is hell difficult to play. I learned it from scratch and even now, after 3 months of playing it I find some things that aren't the way they should.
I don't know if you could call this a "World Premier Performance". Tommy played this song in Elizabethtown last Friday night. He spoke at length about Gareth. Tommy said someone from his audience in Wales volunteered to fund Gareth's first trip to the US when he mentioned that Gareth needed to be heard at CAAS. Tommy dedicated the performance of Welsh Tornado to Gareth that night.
I met Gareth at CAAS a few years ago. He's a great talent and a great person.
that tune was very cool! the way he put the capo on and kept playing without his left hand, and he still made it sound like music! looks pretty hard to play it. anyone know when Tommy's new album is coming?
Bugger me! who the hell could play that?? only Mr T..

I've known Gareth for a few years now - this must have made him over the moon. It's pretty amazing to have a legend write a song for you.
