As if you were onsite, here is a new episode of The Guitar Channel Video Blogging in reportage in Germany for the 2nd edition of Guitar Summit. This guitar event is held in the Rosengarten of Mannheim just 3 hours by train from Paris. This is day 2 of the show.

Video blogging - Saturday September 8th

Interviews of the day

• Thomas Zwijsen et Anne: I discovered this duo composed of Thomas on Nylon string guitars and Anne on violin and voice during the Acoustic Guitar Night concert. They rearranged Metal classics from Iron Maiden and others. Surprisingly enough it rocks big time.

• Jon Gomm - Do we need to introduce the great fingerstyle musician from the UK? He played right after Petteri Sariola and his performance was awseome, full of energy and emotions.

On Saturday night, we had the pleasure to see some great musicians on stage for a big jam. On this picture you can see on the left, Pete Thorn and Larry Mitchell.

Until the next episode of the video blogging or interview, keep on playing the guitar!
