Was that from the year 2000? The pictures from the dressing room we have look the same.

Anyway, isn´t it interesting that he talks about his favorite guitar and then he playes Diamonds, where at 95% of the song he just holds the guitar in his hand and plays one simple chord at the end of every line? ta - taaaaa
Thats not really the best choosen example for showing your guitar skills I guess ;-)

Bodo ,the clip is from a documentary "Talking Guitars" screened at the 2007 Int Doc Film Festival. I guess the interview with Paul was probably 2006 as the band is rehearsing the version of Diamonds they were playing around that time.

Yeah I also think that is the 2006 version with the smaller band, but at the end they show the YTO CD...why not Surprise?

I think they show the YTO cd because there is a photo of the guitar that Flip made for Paul on the cd cover.
