Tom Riepl is astonishing!!! I've heard great guitar players before, but Tom puts his heart & soul into every note! What a privilege to know him---Thanks, Tom, for your love & passion in your playing! It was certainly a pleasure!!!

I think it is a very good idea of Tom to do more gigs in near future. Beside his skills as a composer, arranger and studio-artist he is a brilliant live-musician too. I saw him play all kinds of music, rock, blues, funk, fusion, jazz, country and he did it all in such an authentic way- just amazing. To hear his tone and see him perform his great playing technique is an experience of its own. So do it Tom!
