Guitarists you'd love to meet in person.

Have seen Paco Pena in concert, very cool

[Nickosaurus]

Actually yeah Emmanuel (both brothers) would be great to have a chat with. Saw them once in QLD during their blues festival. So cool

[stan]

I've seen Tommy live in concert, way better than I expected, awesome player

Actually Phil is very good as well

Actually Phil is very good as well

Something of an understatement, my band played along side his on many occasions in the 1970s he's up there amongst the best and a really decent human being who does a lot to support young guys.

( Tommy played drums in Phil's band Goldrush )

[Brendan]

I think Paul Kelly and Darren Hanlon for me... As for bass players...not sure - while it would be cool to meet the standard Jaco, Wooten, Bootsy, Flea, Sting, etc - I'd be keen to find someone who doesn't take themselves too seriously and has fun with their music.

[dave.king1]

Good call on bass players Brendon.

I can think of three straight up who would be really cool to have a beer or three with and learn a bit.

Greg Lake ( would be good to understand the dynamics of playing with Robert Fripp )
Dee Murray ( loved his tone with Elton John )
Tal Wilkenfield ( good perve material as well as being a hell of a player )

[Nickosaurus]

Tal is such a great player. I'd also love to meet Steve Harris too.

Yeah, I saw him in the Sydney Opera House with Leo Kottke and Slava Grigoryan.

Saw the Emmanuel Brother back in 87, or 88, it was a really late gig as they had been doing a telethon that night and they didn't get there until about midnight. Really wild night.

I want to add Sel Balamir and Steve Durose from Amplifier to my list as well.
