At last I have found some live musicians to admire (as opposed to my usual style of getting interested in a band that broke up at least 10 years ago, or just after a key band member carks it).
Rodrigo Y Gabriela hail from Mexico via Ireland and do amazing things with acoustic guitars - they blend all sorts of influences into some amazingly tuneful works.
And thanks to the intrawebthingy you can check their page out at MySpace (and listen to several of their songs). Also you can see some great live action via YouTube (it's live) - they'll also deconstruct some of their styles for you to appreciate in this interview on YouTube.
Their lack of easy fit to a category probably condemned to a life of busking in the past but now a global audience is just a few clicks away (you can buy their tunes via Apple's iTunes Store)
