	loukiii says: 3/12/2013 6:20:27 AM First Lesson: Al: So how long have you been playing? Me: About 2 years. Al: Ok. Great. Play something. Me: (Plays Earl's Breakdown) Al: (slight cringe) Ok...Play something else. Me: Like what? Al: Play Nine Pound Hammer Me: Uh... Hmm... (Feeble attempt at Nine Pound Hammer) Al: (more cringing) Ok. I think I can help...

	MoPac fan says: 3/12/2013 11:09:53 AM When talking about playing high back up.... "You can do it that way but you better get up there! Too late, you missed it!"
	MoPac fan says: 3/12/2013 11:14:34 AM G says, "It's a little bit cold here today." I bet that did put a smile on your face to have someone from Florida tell someone in Canada it's a little cold here today.

	MoPac fan says: 3/13/2013 4:26:03 AM ...Ready to shave a wildcats @$$!... ROFL!!! That's a compliment! I think?
	vicpuch says: 3/13/2013 5:49:26 AM I'm laughing at these quotes...so far Al has been pretty polite to me (not to suggest he is otherwise)...however I sense the gloves will be off soon.
	Lewis842002 says: 3/13/2013 6:02:32 AM Al: have you been playing to the video Me: yes but you keep falling behind or you get to far ahead of me…lol Al: that’s an 1/8 note you need to wait 2 clicks. Me: ok Al: that’s not 2 clicks
	thelongcarabine says: 3/13/2013 3:15:08 PM Al: play the third string open Me: ....twang Al: the other third string
	oldcrowmedicineman says: 3/13/2013 3:33:30 PM Ha! That's the best one, longcarabine. Pure dead magic.
	G says: 3/13/2013 5:30:38 PM :) These are great :) And Mopick ... yep, you're right. It puts a smile on my face. Also makes me ball up my first and shake it at my web cam and threaten to put a hold on my credit card before Al can get paid. Has no effect though - he still says it's "a bit cold" :) Maybe it's a technique ... get me fired up so I can channel my rage to my picking ...
	MiG-19 says: 3/17/2013 2:01:43 AM "You're not ready to buy the tour bus yet." Another notable Al quote.
