Correct Slim. I'm a particular fan of Steves, and done three Kerrville Texas workshops and one in Euroblues Northampton England with him - and I've seen him stop playing until all the cameras and phones are put away. I rate him as one of the best fingerstyle players in the world but he does himself no favours by resticting his filming. He's got awsome technique and puts on a great show - shame he does not promote hisself too well!
I think the reason there isn't much of Steve here is because he discourages recording of his shows. Video recording at least, he didn't seem thrilled about audio-only either, but seemed to allow it. I'm not sure if this is a good business move or bad, but on the rare occasions he passes our way he's playing for small crowds and that's a shame. Personally I think he ought to encourage the recording, youtube could be a good PR tool for him.

Too much fun. Thanks for posting. Wish there was more of Steve on the tube. Cindy's a charm.
