Eric Skye -Watermelon Man (Live)
 

Just found this on my Facebook page this morning. https://youtu.be/_YdLzn_Vb2I
From my solo set at the Santa Cruz Guitar Company 40th Anniversary Concert back in September. Playing to a pin-drop quiet audience of five hundred and fifty was a pretty big thrill. I don't usually get nervous, but I about pooped myself that night :) My favorite part was that my kids traveled to the show and got to sit in the front row with my wife. My thirteen year old son texted me when I got of the stage that I was "actually kinda cool," - that of course only lasted about twenty minutes...

I feel fortunate to have seen this performance live, and it (and the rest of your set) was outstanding. My wife isn't much of a guitar aficionado, but during your set, she leaned over and said, "Wow, he's really good". I just smiled, and said...yep! Of course, she's used to listening to me, so don't let that go to your head. :lol: It was pleasure to be there, and a pleasure to meet you!

That was incredible, Eric!! Very cool indeed!!!!

That was fun, tasteful, clean, funky.........I didn't like it !!






I LOVED IT...........;)

Man, Eric!

That was terrific! I just loved the performance!

Amazing Eric. Not only cool, but really, really good. I wish my SC H13 sounded like that :)

Very cool Eric!

FUNKY!!!! Really loved it!

Very nice, Eric! Good arrangement of some classic Herbie Hancock. I'm afraid I don't understand the album cover though... :)

You are a pinky planter! :D

Very nice performance, as usual.

Wow! Superb performance. Very cool rhythm... great groove. I remember that tune from years ago. I like yours better than the original. :up:

I felt your joy, great performance!

Eric, I was also there that night. It was a great night of music, and you kicked it off perfectly! I remember thinking to myself that if I was in that situation, playing first, by myself, in front of that kind of audience, that I would have been an absolute wreck...but look at Eric, he's as cool as a cucumber! That was great playing, super enjoyable to watch and listen to!

Thanks guys. It was a fun night.

Cool. Glad it sounded good out front. I was the only one that didn't use a pickup that night. Large diaphragm condesor with no monitors in a big theater is quite the thrill.
