That was awesome. Wish they did stuff like that in the USA.
Love you, Jimi. Thanks.

Cool video. From the looks of many in the crowd, much vodka was consumed that day!

Cool indeed - but I seem to remember a couple of years ago, a lot of guitarists gathered together in England to try and set a record. I'm sure it was featured in the GN newsletters.....anyone remember anything about that?
:D :D :D

We can try something similar: a "virtual mega jam". Using a very simple (maybe a two or three chord song) the beginners as me could participate and the advanced players could make some arrangements or leads over the base. What do you think?

I've had a lot of sobering thoughts in my time.
It was them that turned me to drink.
