Oh, I am glad to hear I am not alone. I am a later life guitar learner and am learning classical guitar (I have classical music theory and composition in my background) and really enjoy learning to play a true classical guitar, but I also love a lot of modern music, so I sprinkle in some Pink Floyd and such. But yes, I started learning right handed because all I could think of is the constant frustration of going somewhere where there is a guitar that I could play, but nope, either have to hold it upside down or restring it? No thanks! But yeah, it is taking a LOT longer to learn because I feel like I have to restring my brain and fingers instead...
Great song and great video. Hearing this song as a kid was the first time I remember wanting to play the guitar
That's an awesome story Dave! I'll eventually do a reaction to the live version. Some great live versions of the song!
Hey everyone! I'm going to do a redo of this reaction with the full live version. Stay tuned!
The live version is fabulous and extremely popular, but this version has a great little groove.
Mark is left handed and taught himself to play. Said it made sense to play right handed guitar because the left hand does all the work.
I'm lefty as well and I'm glad I play right handed guitar for that very reason.

I think I may have a new favorite song now..
What a tremendous sin to fade out before the real solo really get going. So sad.
I agree, going to do a redo but with the live version. Thanks for the feedback!
You really need to see Mark play live to see his full skill on display ua-cam.com/video/6rlk34NuIoI/v-deo.html
