@@oldgreyguitarist9069 I think you hid your nerves quite well! Keep up the great Spirit within you...that was so much fun to watch! 🤗

BLOWN away ! Not just for his incredible talent, but for that mind blowing dexterity of his fingers....AT HIS AGE ! Many people with talent have to retire early simply because they loose one thing or another in their hands or fingers or both. This guy is simply AMAZING !

many thanks 😊

How Simon's face is changing in a pure shock and awe when the solo begins is priceless.

Some people are just born with it. It’s never too late, and I hope someone gives him a chance on a huge stage.

Mr better late than never. Amazing talent and humble with it. Really pleased for him. Cannot watch something like this just once. An absolute honour and privilege to witness this chap play. A real credit to the music profession. Well done sir. All the best to you and your students for the future. Wow, AGT: No wonder he was extra nervous. Y T not letting me save this for later. BOOOOOOOOO!!

many thanks for your kind words 😊

His wife is very proud of him the emotions in her face of happiness seeing him shine made me cry.. this is what true love is..

This is my favorite audition…I don’t think I’ve ever seen the audience react like this, (standing during the performance) there have been many great guitarists on AGT through the years, but this one has stage presence, the facial mannerisms, etc. most likely he will progress to the next round…looking forward to his next performance.

I want more of this guy, much more.
