Wow.

[Todd S. Malicoate]

Great find, great player. That balalaik looks fun to play, as well.

BTW, you think he could have gotten better response playing in front of a pile of rocks?

As long as the rocks were only listening to the reverb-in, too, probably.

Live would be another story. But you might have missed some o' that strummin'.

pile of rocks?

I'd guess all we're hearing is through the amp, no mic audio at all. and, since the audience is mostly unseen except for a few scalps.

I'd be in a trance listening to that, too. What an amazing performer!

Name That Tune!

and now, the rest of the story
er...the rest of the performance. Including a couple of crowd shots, and great applause.
