Playing with the strings the wrong way round. That's a talent I've yet to master!

Same for him! Nah, to be fair, he's probably a good player, if you like that sort of thing..... I don't.

Didn't know Geldof played bass

Maybe this Italian chap's singing is actually a lot more faithful to the original than we are giving him credit for :

Looks like an Epic but I can't get my head around the controls being on the wrong side (above as opposed to below if turned around )

Poor old Simon - imagine your pitch going that haywire in front of an audience of approx. 1.9 billion viewers....

It's an Essence I think. Just noticed the controls though!
