i guess you mean the canadian version, yak, 'wink wink nudge nudge'.
Wow crazy, i know how to play that song. i couldnt imagine playing it with my feet. But were did the solo in the songs go. Hes not really playing the song if he missed the solos. Remeber that black dude that played the guitar with his feet for the pope before he died somtime last year? he played a solo so hes better!
In some countries that I have been to (mainly countries from the former Soviet Bloc), people just get on their hands and knees and literally BEG for money. At first, I thought they were praying, but people kept throwing money on them. Actually, it's kind of eerie if you go to some places in Poland - Not much has changed there (aesthetically) since the fall of Communism. That's just my 2 cents I guess.
Comments to Armless Tom Petty Guitar Player
rock on footie<br>first
That was awesome. I'd shake that man by the hand if I ever met him.
Funny how the same clips seem to appear on every website at the same time.
This is a pretty cool clip though and it's a shame that we don't see more (if any) people tossing a few bucks into the dude's guitar case.
oh i remember seeing this guy a few years back, i havent seen him in awhile though, probably dead.

Busking is what we call street performers in Canada. Get a grip.

Do they still use words like "Minstrel" and "Bard" in Canada too? :) Is a guitar still called a "Lute"?
the guys badd ass you have to give him a "hand" at least he is trying to support himself... not some lazy nigger looking for a handout.
