Rob, that was truly inspirational. I only recently saw August Rush. It was the first time that I had heard someone use the guitar as a percussive/stringed instrument. After seeing the movie I came home & wrote my first August Rush style piece. (I'm a novice compared to you), but we all need to start somewhere :) I was wondering if you use a different tuning than the normal E tuning. If so, Iet me know. Thanks again for your inspiration. It makes me want to become better too :) God bless, Jackie
now that you've startedto read this dont stop or u will be killed. my name is samantha and i have no mouth and no legs and no ears if u dont forward this onto at least 10 videos i will come inot ur room and kill u in ur sleep P.S. i didnt start this
You do understand that the common guitar started as a percussive, specifically, 'keyed precussion'. It was only flamingo and other styles that started adding a melodic aspect to the guitar that it them came into being as an instrument in it's own right.
I assume that you are using the DADGAD, just like Don Alder. You have a lot in common with his slap technique. Impressed isn't even the appropriate word. Keep it up.

A flamingo is a large pink bird.
What do birds have to do with this?

Very funny. Naturally I meant 'flamenco'.
But the point still stands, guitars started out as keyed percussion instruments.
