Keni Lee Burgess said… - Thank you for your comment. I try not to take myself too seriously. Playing should be fun and uplifting. If you are not feeling it as a performer, the audience won't either. Enjoy.

- Thanks Susan for your comment on my 2nd build. I wouldn't go that far to say it is beautiful, it is easy on the eye. I am glad you like it. I have a couple things to fix on it, though.

Michael Neis said… - Hello Susan,the Purgatory Hill show Friday night was mesmerizing.I had the best seat in the bar and couldn't take my eyes off of Pat playing the Lowebow.In between a break, Pat and I were discussing Cigar Box Nation and I asked if I could post a review of the show on CBN.His eyes lit up when I mentioned CBN and it was so cool when he said that he had seen the guy in the "Pig Mask" on there before.PH played for over 3 hours themselves for a $5.00 cover charge!! and then they both signed a CD for me after the show,such cool people!!.Such a cool night out,Good Friends and Great Music!!!,Michael.
