Memorial to a fantastic "natural". Listen closely at 2:30 and especially 2:50. Guitar, chord, combo. Whew!

Tom and Scott,
Thanks for your thoughts. Glad to know its not "just" me that "hears" what Rory had going. He has such fun with his playing that it transcends ego and
sends a big message out to some of today's posturing dour-angst-yell bands to "lighten up". Maybe his videos should be run at all Guitar Centers from
11 am to 2 pm every Saturday?

That's one gig i wish i had seen
I was 14 when he played Belfast back in 84 and i couldn't get a ticket ,he played Dublin the next night IIRC
Funny thing is, the Ulster Hall Belfast stage doesn't look that big when you are there ,this might be the Dublin gig.
