If you get a chance to see this guy in concert, it is a great show.

I had the opportunity to meet him since he played here @ the club where I work. Real nice guy.

 

 

That's pretty cool to know.

 

It seems like he doesn't get too much respect in the GJ community. I guess he's got the wrong bloodline. I'm thinking of changing my name to Tschakabonsz to fit in.

Jorgenson doesn't seem to get much respect from anybody, really, which is a shame.

 

He's a true virtuoso playing country, rock, bluegrass and gypsy jazz. Yet if you ask any person who their favorite player is in those genres, you aren't likely to hear Jorgenson's name...despite the fact that he's as talented as anyone.

 

Anywho...I still can't get over the tone he gets outta that dread. One thick pick plus his technique = gypsy tone.
