Unusual technique...for a pro

[RVA]

I have never seen a closeup of Jimmy Vaughn's playing before. Suffice it to say that his technique was quite different than his brother's. The fun starts at 4:53

I loves me a Strattykaster, but I'm glad BB was there with his Gibbo to balance the sound out a bit.

Lookie that, a room full of guitars players and nothing but the same tired old pentatonic wankery over and over again. If anything the boredom starts immediately.

I do not do any stage playing, but I have been told that it is bad form to show-up the guest of honor with a technique far more advanced than they are capable of performing.

Well, of the three only Robert Cray stands a chance at that, but I can dig the sentiment. Nonetheless, no new ground has been trod here; same ol' boring blues progression, same ol' boring blues licks. It's like the first stuff you learn to play when you start to understand scales...yawn.

Hey brother, I'd practice the learned art of pentatonic blues wank all day long for enough ducats. Hell, it't the kind of thing you can do stone drunk and still sound convincing.
