I went to a small guitar workshop with Laurence Juber (MacCartney's Wings). A small group and a great workshop. Amazing guitar player. During the workshop, he was demonstrating/explaining something or other, broke string (wound D), didn't miss a beat in what he was explaining, all the while grabbing that D string, restringing and tuning...in like the span of three minutes!

My wife still talks about that.

And overall, easily one of the most musically astounding events I've been too. He has a shocking amount of skill and knowledge.
