Yes, but can you still play the Motel 6 commercial?

Awesome picking and fresh licks

IMO, Milo's "touch" with his picking and with the bar is absolutely amazing! What a musician!

Milo, that was just some fantastic playing as everything you play is. I'll never forget the first time you were at the Dallas Steel Convention, at least I think it was the first. You were playing Sweet Georgia Brown and Jeff Newman went up and stopped you and said, where is the heck did you come from? You're doing things most of us just dream about and I don't even know you,LOl.
Just keep up your videos as your playing is not only great but original and very refreshing. Your Buddy--Henry

That knocked me out Milo. It's one thing to have that kind of killer chops, it's another to play with that kind of creativity. Imagine, OBS without a single Jernigan or Franklin lick!

I love all of your youtube stuff (especially the one where you crack your teenaged daughter up by shredding).

Oh, by the way. It's not fair. If you are going to play steel that well, you need to quit all of the other instruments. It's going to create an unreasonable expectation out there.

Yes! Great stuff, Milo! Please post some more soon...

Who cares what they look like, as long as they can play? And Milo knows how to play. I have gotten used to the long hair, it would just look weird short.
I must have watched the other two videos 500 times.
BTW, I am sure you are saying this tongue in cheek; you don't exactly have a shaved head yourself, Chris!

Shoot, even if he just plays steel that well, it's going to create an unreasonable expectation out there!

Aw come on! That's it, I'm taking a sledge hammer to my guitar.
Seriously, that is an amazing piece of work Milo. I found it yesterday and was checking to see if had been posted here on the forum. I've had out my Leanne Rimes CDs lately and was looking for more of you on Youtube. Amazing playing. I play a Carter too, but that's where the similarity ends.

There's a big similarity between Milo and me - we both have the same number of arms and legs.

What tremendous control and touch - second-to-none!

Milo has dazzing talent ... Check out all of his Youtube vids... the one where he is playing Christmas music to his dog Bonnie, is just wonderful.. Funny, sweet, and his fingerstyle guitar playing is as perfect as his steel playing. His level of talent on so many different instruments is truly beyond comprehension... bob
