Well I fulfilled one of my bucket list item's. I flew from Ottawa Ontario to Moncton New Brunswick Canada with my son to see Tommy Emmanuel. I had seen Tommy 2 other times but what made this so special was the fact that Frank Vingola (sp) and Vinni were with him. This does not happen very often and on Tommy's present Canada tour he only had these guys at Moncton and Halifax. What a chance to see this. I always said to myself that if Tommy ever came any where close with these two I would move heaven and earth to be there. Well last fri I got my wish and what a concert they put on. Three solid hours with only a very short intermission. I have seen Tommy play with many good players but IMHO when he plays with these two there is some kind of magic going on. Just look at their faces. It says it all. I am a very happy camper. If you ever have the chance to see them don't pass it up, you will be sorry. Thanks Tommy, Frank and Vinni for a most unforgettable night.

Well I'll be blowed, it's Nels. I'm so pleased to hear from you again. I think I first started here asking for your advice in 2000/2001?

Lovely chap.

This is what happened when a 13 yr old friend of mine went to see him last year just before a sell-out concert at the Sage Gateshead.
