I just don't get the appeal. Yeah it takes plenty of talent I'm sure, but it just doesn't sound all that great imo.
Give me the blues any day
eta: as more of a percussive instrument

How about a compromise?

It's not something I just listen to all the time but its certainly impressive as hell and can be quite beautiful

I can dig that.
I guess I was referring more to using the guitar as percussion instrument + hitting the strings instead of picking or strumming them

Is that really the same thing?
He is awesome but I don't think that is what OP is about.

All imitators of the man! Saw him play in Austin in a small club in 1989...one of the best shows I've seen!

Random thought but why is he wearing a watch if he was blind?

I guess my thread turned into a slide guitar discussion 
Sorry for the confusion. For whatever reason, I always seem to stumbleupon these guys who play an acoustic as a percussion instrument more than anything. I think it's referred to as "tapping", and most of them lay it flat on their laps. Just wanting the MBs opinion, as I don't really understand the appeal for it.
here are some more examples
