I never had the chance to see SRV in concert, (actually I never took the chance), but for anyone who was fortunate enough to see this guy on stage, i'm sure it was a life changing experience. Its just not the same watching him on video, but his concerts are amazing. He hardly ever stares down at his fret board, he focuses on an object in the room, and just lets his natural instincts get the best of him. This guy was very very well practiced, and his confidence in himself is something that I admire. He had a true passion for the blues, and he gave the music a new meaning...As for Kenny Wayne, don't be so hard on the guy, hes rather good, but I'll admit he doesn't even come close to SRV. Perhaps with a bit more time, and less blow drying action, he just might reach his high spot..:D
