Anyone got his album? It's great.

Got a cover of Tear Drop.

Saw him in concert 2 weeks ago in Shepherds Bush and he was as good a comedian as he was a guitarist... a very funny show. The 'sponge bob square pants' theme tune cover was knicker-wettingly funny

His version of teardrop is far better in my opinion, a much better guitarist technically too

I'm amazed so many people know who he is. Never 'eard of him meself.

Edit: Now I've heard him, I'm on the 'does nothing for me' side of the debate. Anyone that ginger should be banned from posessing dreadlocks.

I don't mind him too much, I do like "Dream Catch Me". I still think Massive Attacks 'Teardrops' is better though.
