Is this the circus??? this about playing blues not doing acrobatic stuff with the guitar...

[mrGUITARO999]

this guy really is a bad example of a blues player.

Under the leg PLEASE>>>>>>>>>>>>

WANKER

[MrTommySullivan]

@wernerkonings TOTALLY agree!

[Ghostrider7973]

this is a fuckin joke

[mikeketlo]

@uva2323 so many people do the same blues stuff, what ever it takes to stand out

[DeadDogHowlin]

is this the best they can do it must have been poorley subscribed that year

I try not to be a hater, but I don't know what the judges where thinking. Non of his bends are in tune nor his speed runs. I know there had to of been better contestants.

[MrZSBadger]

But from what I see anymore, that seems to be the dividing line with musicians, especially guitarists. There are those who play what they know, and then they're are those who play what they feel.

[MrZSBadger]

He's better than I am, in technique. The acoustic portion was for the most part pretty nice, but from what I've seen from all these King of the Blues videos, they're all about showing off and shredding. I'm not as efficient in technique, but as a heavy blues player, I FEEL what I play. It might be simple, but it's got my feeling behind it; it's not about melting someone's face off and looking like I'm trying to take a giant shit on my instrument.

3.53: Not only does it sound shitty - dude is actually taking a dump a la forestier - on his own guitar. I had to avert my gaze. Too much like the time my old labrador who, late in life, sitting flat on her considerable butt, lifted her hind legs from the floor, pulled up in a crunched position and pulling forward using only her front legs - sporting a strangely surprised look of accidental genious, on her face - drew the route from the sunny spot on my rug to the water bowl in the kitchen.

[Trademark691]

I've seen him and his band around NJ multiple times,and say it was the 60s or 70s, they would be a supergroup...but this? cmon Matt!

[trs4ever]

Looks like he's going to take a dump on his guitar! LOL!

[cisco2fun1]

@bluesboy747 i cant belive that this guy is a winner!!!! wow.. is all i can say... wonder who the judges are!!??!?!?!? freaks w/o a musical ear @ all...

[cisco2fun1]

take it eassy dude dont brake that leg u stand on cus u might hit more bad notes!!!!!!

[LesterPaul01]

@bluesboy747 Well I tend to agree somewhat. I believe we are all artists and how we choose to paint the canvas can and is most always controvercial. His tone was way to overdriven, raspy, and compressed. Over playing can be and issue too. Hitting people with a ton of notes can bore them real fast. I found that a couple slow soulful bends can get their attention and keep it. Playing tastfuly and not over the top makes the crowd wonder what you are going to do next. I love the blues too. Rock on

[bluesboy747]

@LesterPaul01 Your right my friend, but this guy is far from doing anything that has to do with the blues...You must be a friend or relative of this clown

[bluesboy747]

This is a disgrace to the blues..what a freaking joke...And this guy won ! I would hate to see and hear the other contestants if this was the best they had to choose from...My God !!
