Tommy Emmanuel

Look, the Lisinski is a great venue and all, but man, you can't even grab a smoke or a drink inside without being treated like a criminal 😁 plus ticket prices are going to skyrocket.
I’ve no idea when the concert is actually set, but I know the same promoters who booked him for the Lisinski grabbed this spot immediately.

Well, obviously, because the guy is absolutely incredible! 🙏 🙏 🙏

I mean, I guess they probably saw the absolute madness he caused—if it was even remotely close to the pure euphoria we felt back in Cleveland—and realized there’s some serious money to be made there... 🙄 🙄

Honestly, anyone who misses out on this... they just have no idea what they're missing. You really have to be there to get it. It's one of those experiences that money just can't buy. Every single time I think about how insanely expensive the ticket was (and let me tell you, it definitely wasn't cheap!), I completely forget about the cost once the show starts. Within the first few minutes, you just realize that kind of feeling? It’s priceless.

Shout out to everyone who actually showed up to this show, especially those self-proclaimed music critics and "experts" who didn't have a clue who Tommy was even a year ago.
Now suddenly everyone’s acting shocked, like some guy from Mars just dropped an alien artifact right at their feet. 🤣

I've got a massive pile of photos if anyone wants them

Wait—are you actually the guy they kept telling to settle down right behind me? 😠 😬

Trust me, there's zero chance. Nobody was sitting in front of me until I hit Tommy. I've even got my ticket right here as 😁proof.

It's funny how everyone's acting shocked now, like someone from Mars just dropped an album at their feet. 🤣

I've got a ton of photos if anyone wants them, and

khm.. you're in the wrong thread, man—this one's about last year's show. Use this link for the Lisinski discussion:

Mods - 🙂 plz 🙂 clean this up

Nice try kid! 🤣

Look, this whole topic is about Tommy Emmanuel and his tours, so obviously it covers his shows. Whoever started that other thread about the Lisinski gig should've had the sense to check if we already had stuff on Tommy posted here first...

Mods - feel free to kill that reply above if you're already deleting stuff

Here’s the one thing I actually took away from his performance:

The most important part of playing is moving your hips while you do it!!!😬
The man is 👍

Count me in, my friend!
Is there any way we can work something out so I can get my hands on those too??
I actually have some footage of Tommy performing that you might find interesting as well.

A concert that stays etched in your memory forever... and there's another one right around the corner.

so which one were you at?

Who among you actually made it to one of his shows?.. Do you remember? Truly an incredible human being.. You go through every single emotion imaginable, from tears to laughter.. You'll find yourself completely breathless more than once.. And honestly, even if it’s a concert where you aren't drinking or jumping around, you still have the most amazing time..
Is anyone planning to catch the new show in Washington, D.C. on January 21st?
Let me hear it, folks..
And all my fellow guitarists out there..

Back in Cleveland, on my birthday, January 22nd, he actually played with Hala

...back when last year was still happening

Oh, man... nice.. my buddy went to the last one and honestly? He had this massive, goofy grin plastered on his face for three weeks straight after he got back. 😍
😁

Actually, never mind... I guess I'll just keep talking to myself then..
It is truly fascinating how a guitar can suddenly transform into a whole orchestra, complete with its own percussion section and actual superpowers..🙂 Honestly, you don't truly understand what a guitar concert is supposed to be until you've seen Tommi live. The man has this incredible charisma & the smile
It is an absolute necessity for any serious guitar player's lifetime experience.

That’s just how that smile works...🙂 It travels from Tommy straight to the crowd.
Honestly, I can't make heads or tails of these posts, and why they're lagging behind like this is beyond me.

I caught the show in Washington, D.C. last year and I’m definitely going back this year... already got my ticket 😍

goldenhound8, are you on something, dear? 🙂

No, but you aren't exactly the first person to tell me that... who knows why, really😁

It’s quite lovely living in a wonderland...
