The Glade 4.0

followed your link and then a few others and came across this vid again. i think a video of him was posted at the old glade or one of its reincarnations..

I read somewhere a while back that someone stole his guitar...

I think I remember vaguely that Taylor ended up replacing it...

Lots of Mario theme interpretations out there. This has to be one of the best...

dude midgen, 2nd time you've linked a video and led me to finding amazing artists on youtube :p

I've been following him off and on for several years. He's a truly gifted guitarist. I had no idea he even played Ukulele until someone linked that to one of the guitar forums I read...

It's fascinating to watch people play this well, but as someone who tries to play, stuff like that can be depressing/discouraging...


Just coincidentally, I'm just finishing up putting a finish on a Ukulele I built a couple of years ago. I started to put some oil on it, but never got around to finishing.

I guess now I have a little incentive. =)

THIS IS A THING THAT HAPPENED.

Someone understood the Anakin - C33PO romance long before the prequels came out.

That looked a bit like Dan Akroyd. Made me do a double-take. I need his glasses.

The Narrator is Grant Goodeve, who among other things, voiced "The Engineer" in Half-Life 2, and is currently the host of Northwest Backroads, which is a local travel show.

According to my daughter at least part of Sidewinder showed up at her school today on some sort of tour and played. (though minus the lead singer, she indicated they had two other singers)

I can't find anything to corroborate this though.
