Hey all, I've been wanting to do "Honey Pie" (from the Beatles' White Album) in a gypsy jazz style for a while. Finally did it and posted it to YouTube:

    .....Nice tune that works really well in the GJ style. Great chord voicings and movement and the prelude before the tempo picks up!

    Wow, Adrian, you rock, dude! I always look forward to your videos, so much imagination and humor.

    And I'm also looking forward to more great jams at Django in June. See you in a couple of months!

    Well done!

    What video software do you use to make that split screen?

    Are you on a PC or Mac?

    Thanks

    Adrian--

    Might be fun to do this at Old Town next time around.

    I've never been a guitar player, but I've played one on stage.
