lovely. who is this? where was it?
thinking about getting Mike an acoustic for Xmas, any thoughts? Dave said he would help me navigate the waters if I decided thus.
Have a good Wed. I think I'm on half time today due to low work load.

I'm gonna have to find this guy doing some serious guitar passages; like Uncle Willie's, the wear on the box is amazing and it just has to be nicely mellowed.

This is a band called "Swell Season". The guy is Glen Hansard and the woman is Marketa Irglova.

They played in a movie called "Once" which I very highly recommend. Great love story. Very much not an American movie.
Check out their video "Falling Slowly". 9 million views on youtube.

He is also in an Irish band called "The Frames".
