BABY WIPES!!! These have been so handy for so many reasons, and you never know when your bandmates might need something a little more... gentle. Especially on a tour diet. They NEVER think to bring wipes! I like a quick wipe down to freshen up after sitting in a van all day... Hobo shower! x2 on set...

I wasn't able to stay for too long but I did manage to grab some good images of the steel jam and say hi to some folks! I surely hope to set up and play next time... Which is kinda daunting cause all those pickers there were GREAT! I thought this was a pretty good venue... The place was huge and it ...

Mechanics workshop update: I signed up with evite and commented on 2 issues that I have since resolved (I believe), but it would be great if someone could go over my work.

I've been looking at putting a rack unit together, but prices will pretty much limit me to using a combo... So if any of you know of a Nashville 400 or comparable amp that might be for sale around these parts, please let me know! I'll see you folks there on the 18th. I have an issue with my B pedal ...

Thought I'd dig this up... Been listenin' to some MTB as I've been practicin' steel lately and I just wanted to say that I LOVE some of Toy's chops!

That's funny, I was just thinking the same thing just the other day... :D When I first started playing, sometime around 2006, I couldn't stand finger picks!
