Guitar Wiz


Sister Cary in Knoxville sent me this:

Who is this guy?

with nearly 7.35 million views — and a spot in the site’s 10 most-viewed videos of all time .... funtwo’s guitar performance . From the perch it’s occupied for months on YouTube’s “most discussed” list, it generates a seemingly endless stream of praise (riveting, sick, better than Hendrix), exegesis, criticism, footnotes, skepticism, anger and awe. Read about it-NYT.
