  • Got to spend a few minutes with Tommy before lunch. I just adore the fact that he's so down to earth and personal. I wasn't expecting much given that it was time for lunch. I just wanted to show that I had worked a part out that I had been struggling with during the last camp but he turned the tables on me. All in such a humble and personal way. Thanks again Tommy!

    He always comes across as a genuine, humble, patient, and truly caring person. To generously give and not expect anything back speaks volumes about him. To me, that’s even more important than being one of the best guitarists out there. I love his personality and guitar playing. I hope he is doing OK during these tough times.

      I agree 100% and it's what keeps me coming back. I was a fan before I met him but after meeting him for the first time I became a super fan and wanted to know more and more about him and actually start learning his music. He really sparked a fire in me I didn't even know was there.

    I’ve met Tommy a couple of times. The most memorable was at a guitar festival at Kirkmichael in Ayrshire organised by Martin Taylor. I met him in the local hotel which was full and we had a pint together. The previous evening the generator in the marquee had pegged out and the concert was nearly cancelled. Tommy and Richard Smith retired to the small stage at the far end of the marquee which still had power. Everybody crowded in and they put on a brilliant show. The next day I met him at the hotel. A kid there who had some kind of disability asked him to play his old Suzuki guitar and Tommy took it to a nearby bench and played for the next 45 minutes. The local crowd were in raptures and crowded round the bench. He’s a real people person, very accessible and not at all up himself. A true gent who loves what he does. Wish there were a lot more like him

      Yes absolutely!! I've had several encounters with him between 2018 and just a couple weeks ago at camp (my second) and I could tell tons of stories about him. For me, he's been a kind of saving grace. When I first met him in 2018 I had been really really sick with Lyme disease and hadn't had the strength to play my guitar for a couple of years. He talked to me so sweetly and with wisdom and that night I made it my goal to learn at least one of his songs. It took time but I realized pretty quickly that playing guitar was speeding up my recovery. Every time since (especially at this camp) he asks me how I'm feeling and gives me plenty of hugs. On a related note, he lost his sister to Lyme 😞. The video of my first encounter is on my channel as well as my first time playing with him at the maui camp and for him with a friend at a concert in Hawaii after camp.

    There's a lot to learn here. Tommy could have pointed out all kinds of flaws, in terms of technique or rhythm. Instead he told you what he does and what the music is like. He's very inspirational in his teaching, not interventional. And the mere fact of giving you 3 minutes of listening time is beyond motivational.

So glad it's finally happening and that I found out it was rescheduled so I didn't miss it. Anyway. I'll try to get a video if I do end up playing with him so keep an eye out.

I had an actual mentor session with Richard Smith and he showed me a few tips on how to work on that. Hopefully in the future I'll be able to share a video of me playing that. It's Doyle's arrangement of What a Friend We Have In Jesus.
