ALERT: NEW GUITARIST FOUND

I am officially in love with Sheryl Crow's guitarist, Peter Stroud... He's no Kirk Hammett or anything, but the way he performs is amazing.
He kind of like just stands there playing, which is usual background bass player lame-o behavior. But somehow he makes it work, he just plays and gets so into it that halfway through the concert he's like walking around the stage and just really, really concentrated and it's incredible to watch. And every once and a while, during a solo when he's playing like there's nobody else around, he kind of smiles to himself, like everything in the world is balanced and nothing else matters besides that moment.
And he stares straight at you when he does it. So. Freakin'. Cool. It's one of the most Zen things I've ever seen.
So yes, at the Sheryl Crow concert I was at last night she was pretty dang good and I loved her guitar and her singing (and especially her Michael Jackson impression, don't ask) but her guitarist took the cake for me. Especially since we were like three rows back and he makes eye contact with the audience while he plays. It's amazing, he's such a natural born guitar player.
