Yeah Franks the Shiznit. He schooled on Tommy with his groove and sillyness. I love it when Tommy and Frank play together. They seem to really have a good time together. Warms the soul.
@john4019 Buddy....I fear its you and me against the world. Have you heard Joscho Stephan.
If not punch up Joscho Stephan "After you've gone." Probably the greatest technical guitarist in the world. Guaranteed to blow you away.Let me know what you think.
Boys boys........your language leaves so much to be desired. Shame on you. Please try to get along without such vulgarity. If you can't control yourselves then join the Marines.........they won't
stop you from being dirtymouths but they'll teach you how to beat the shit out of each other and to stand up straight.
@sonarman65 Agreed. I watch too many videos on youtube of stellar musicians only to find half the comments involve everyone fighting. I feel bad for you guys. Lets talk about some music!
You've come a long way from the days when you and brother Mike played in the St. Mary's folk mass band on Sunday mornings! Really enjoy your playing, Frank. Regards to Mike as well. Don Goess IHS class of '81.
@rain1ny Heaven forbid they should have fun! They MUST fit into your definition of how people should behave when playing! You must just hate Tommy Emmanuel, too. If it is "cheese" to you, that is just fine. One person's cheese is another's delightful fondue. Let us enjoy our fondue and go to other videos you enjoy. Frank is a terrific talent. Saw him with David Grisman at Yoshi's a few weeks ago.
@rain1ny I'd like to hear music played this well and see the players do the can can at the same time! I don't think there is anything wrong with being a superb musician and an entertainer at the same time. It might not be your cup of tea, but there were a lot of people in the audience that seemed to appreciate it. I've seen Mr. Vignola and cohorts play live in a club, and it was a good time. Surely that is the purpose of a lot of live music?
@schmattarags I've seen Frank Vignola play many times, and I find his playing amazing. I think he is one of the great improvisers and incredibly talented That being said I still find this video contrived, incredibly silly and cheesy! You my friend are allowed to have your opinion and I will not question your love of cheese and for you I recommend ones that are smelly and the more the better.
I find it a fun, well rehearsed piece made for an audience to enjoy. I also find your opinion to be that of a typical beat-off internet retard who thinks baseless criticism implies his own 'insight'...
Yes, 'contrived'. Now call it 'derivative' and mention how it 'self-awarely insists on it's own virtuosity' or whatever other pompous buzz-phraseology douchebag 'critics' employ in a vein attempt to be noticed, while hoping nobody notices they aren't worth paying attention to
I'm the furthest thing from 'small minded'. I am quite open minded about identifying pseudo-intellectual, pompous jagoffs and pointing them out to the world.
Haha, you muppets are all the same. Here's a protip, twat. You aren't nearly as intelligent as you think you are. Your capacity for objective discrimination is terrible, You're precisely the sort of person who spends weekends using florid adjectives to describe samples of fine wine, then goes back to your job as a 3rd grade teacher on the weekday. HUGE beatoff. Amusing to watch the sophist garbage when coupled with your lack of self-awareness.
