@Itsrealhands Six Degrees Of Seperation!

Leo undoubtedly has a great sense of humour and can spin a funny yarn with the best of 'em, but there is also a serious, deeply compassionate side to the man which also sometimes comes to the fore. What other kind of person, for example, could sing, "Louise", with such obvious tenderness and sincerity. Take a look also at the deeply moving clip uploaded by jpiir some years ago - "Across The Street" - but take a deep breath before you do ....

tuning a 12 string guitar is like a monkey fucking a football.

His sense of humor almost equals his playing. Love it.

Leois one of the funniest guys who ever lived. i saw him at a concert at IU in the seventies; he had us all in stitches between each song.
He stopped dead, right in the middle of "Vaseline Machine Gun". There was absolute silence, the audience was dumbstruck.
Then Leo said, " Stopping in the middle of a song like this is like waking up in the middle of a wet dream, and then trying to go back to sleep in it."
Whereupon he re-commenced, right where he left off. The audience went nuts!
Martin Carthy claims to not remember meeting Dylan either. Someone had to show him a picture of them togther to convince him.
Seems to be a re-occurring theme. Maybe we've all met Dylan at one point in our lives but just don't remember.

I got to see Leo Kottke in San Francisco about a year and a half ago and recently seen Tommy Emmanuel in Napa. They were both totally awsome live! I dont know why people always feel the need to make comparisons they both kick ass on the stage in their own way :-)
