sounds to me like you did something right, i mean, from your description it sounds like the guy liked your picking. as an entertainer and musician, i would think that anytime you make someone listening to you feel good, you did something right, no matter what kind of licks you were playing. when i was first playing banjo with my friends around campfires and informal gatherings, people would remark at how they enjoyed it, but in my mind wasn't doing anything special, and kind of got embarrased from their remarks. in my mind i wasn't that good. then one day someone told me that i needed to learn how to take a compliment, i had never had anyone tell me that before. i guess beauty is in the ears of the beholder....

Robert Randolph has been nominated for TWO Grammys: Best Rock Instrumental and Best Rock Gospel Album. I'm sure he'll win one of those and he may win both.

Frankly, I believe all this dialogue on the Forum is good--not always pleasant, but good. People are speaking their minds and being confronted with ideas and opinions that might get them thinking about some relevant issues.

Go Robert!
