holy smoke, that is sensational - those guys can not only PLAY they can also PERFORM. I wonder what happened to them ? - I'll have to do some web searching on this.

Andy Tielman's own website is in Dutch and has resisted all my efforts to translate it using Babelfish

Crazy, man crazy. Berserk-ness. Gone, solid gone...

I was hoping that using the 'H' word would catch your eye, Adam. Glad you enjoyed the clip.

Did you check any of the other clips? Is he a decent guitarist or just an incredible showman? He seemed to be doing some strange stuff on the 'Black Eyes' track.

[Adam Blake]

He makes more out of one good lick that most guitarists do out of twenty!
That makes him a good guitarist in my book....
