Guitar Idol

Interesting site and competition if you haven't seen it - http://www.guitar-idol.co.uk/entries/top_rated

Some of these guys are absolutely bad ass...

Gustavo Guerra is the man. I think he's brazillan, like our very own NonsenseTele.  Hey Nonsense, is this guy big over there??

I've been following his stuff on YouTube for a while now.  He's got tons of vids and they are all fantastic.  if you havent already seen it, you should check out his take on Manhatten by Eric Johnson.

He's got great 'taste' and 'feel'. All of the guys in that comp are good, but Guerra just looks like he's having more fun with it, and is into it a bit more than some of the others.  In my opinion some of them just look like they're playing for the sake of being on youtube.

All good though.  And the winners get to come and play over here.  Better get some tickets to that show.......

Gustavo Guerra is the man........

Wow, thanks for the heads-up! I have a real soft spot in my heart for musicians who express their joy of playing like this cat does. Seems like a guy who would be fun to spend a day with.

He always seems to have a smile on his face in his other videos too.  And he jams with his dad in one of them.  Can only be cool.

Yes, he is from Brazil, if I'm not wrong from Curitiba, in the south...
He is big here, not one of the biggest, like Eduardo Ardanuy, Kiko Loureiro, etc... But he is getting, he is son of a musician producer, so he has a easier way...

I think he is a good player, but I dont like his OVER acting when playing, doesn't look sincere to me...
He became famous from Youtube, if I'm not wrong and he is getting a very fast rise in fame, I believe he will be soon one of the most known brazillian guitar players... Probably you all doesn't understand what he speak in his videos, so probably that is why you like him so much, I think he focus in 12-17 years old guitar player, don't know.... I'm not his biggest fan...
Hope he get fame and make a good work to let the name of Brazil in a nice way thru the world!  :icon_thumright:
