Brad Paisley on Muppets Christmas special!

Holy crap, my kids are watching some new Muppets Christmas special and Brad Paisely just tore it up on the Tele -- surrounded by a bunch of muppet penguins! Man, am I glad my wife decided to TiVo this special!

I've always heard great things about the guy, but never actually heard or saw him play. Hot damn!

I just saw this too. He won me over. I never heard him before. I had to look him up to see who he was. A country guy I ain't but he's got chops and tone.

I just re-watched the performance on TiVo. Okay, so the song he sang was "Jingle Bells" with Grover and a bunch of penguins. A hilarious part was mid-solo, when he playfully poked one of the penguins away and continued with his solo without missing a beat. Great holiday stuff!

Can anyone point me to other amazing clips on the web of this guy and his amazing technique?

Pick up his DVD. There's a great backstage interview where he shows off his Teles & talks about playing too.
