those stupid faces that musicians make are natural......this is called the "guitar face"......they're not aware of it.....you get to a point where the music overtake you and you became one with it........unless you're a musician, you won't understand the concept at all.

Genuinely nice to see and hear someone attempt to do what Stanley Jordan did so fantastically (26 years ago).  

Stanley, though, was always able to refrain from evincing the need to take a dump while playing.  

And  Stanley didn't wedge empty cigarette cartons and condom wrappers between the strings and fret board to eliminate buzzing.  

Still, this guy has a nice touch.

Being a musician, I know about the faces as you play, but those faces he's making are contrived, fake and stupid.

Kind of like the video.

If you listen to the music and watch his hands at the same time, you will see something is not quite right with the sound coming out, the melody and what is being shown. Perhaps he really can play that piece but there, I don't think he really is. ::)

Sad part is that as talented as he is, his face is too distracting.... That I undesrtand.

Fuck that face!

Beginning at 1:45...Glenn Gould was renowned for his "piano face" and other eccentricities while he played...third movement of the "Emperor..."
