One of the best buskers ever...

On the way home from lunch, Jack and I wandered through town. Outside BHS (or whatever has replaced it) was one of the most amazing acoustic guitarists I've ever heard - he played with the guitar on his lap a la Jeff Healey, and was tapping arpeggios in a Stanley Jordan/Reb Beach like manner whilst playing open chords, which he tuned/re-tuned as he was going along like Adrian Legg. Reminded me of late acoustic genius Michael Hedges but more aggressive. Would have spent rather longer listening had the little man not wanted to go and look at lightsabers, and provided as big a tip as I could have had I any cash. If you're in the centre of Bristol at lunchtime, have a listen out. Whilst most of the above names probably mean nothing to you, this fella was amazing and has a really beautiful sound.
