Video: Timothy Agee plays medley of Jack White guitar riffs at Bellevue Church of Christ Talent Show

In August 2013, one of my best friends passed away suddenly. His name was Kerry Anderson, and he owned a LOT of guitars. A few months after his death, his parents, Neil and Glenda Anderson, gave me one of his guitars. Prior to that day, I don’t think I had ever even held a guitar, much less played one. I treasured the gift greatly and promised them that I would learn to play.

Well, tonight I played the guitar in public for the first time in my life. It was at the Bellevue Church of Christ Talent Show, and I participated to honor Kerry and the awesome gift from Neil and Glenda. I decided to do a medley of guitar riffs from Jack White since he is my favorite modern guitar player, and because I’ve spent a lot of time practicing songs from The White Stripes and his solo work.

This was the most nervous I have been in a LONG time, and my hands where shaking the whole time. However, I made it through it, and am mostly pleased with how it went. Thanks for everyone for their kind words after the show.

Here’s a rundown of the songs in the medley:

  1. Sixteen Saltines
  2. Dead Leaves and the Dirty Ground
  3. Fell In Love With a Girl
  4. Blue Orchid
  5. Seven Nation Army
  6. Hardest Button to Button
  7. Icky Thump
