My gramma was Choctaw, dada from Tallahasee Mississippi.
I don't have the Blues, I do not listen to the Blues, I do not play Blues.
Nothing wrong with Blues music, it is just not my taste in music.
I play Folk, Trad, Bluegrass, Skiffle.
A lot of people on here are not playing Blues on a CBG,
I like to fingerpick like on a banjo open D or G on my 4 string and use a slide to play instrumental breaks.
Also some Flatpicking.
If I can film my playing I will post it.

I listen to the Dubliners, John Prine, Nanci Griffith, Ricky Skaggs, Ally Bain, ect.

Enjoy your Blues, Check this out

So we got to live eat and sleep the Blues to be here now? What if you just want to build cool sounding guitars?

Maybe Uncle Blues will post us a vid of him showing us just what he learnt in 40 years.
