Cigar Box Guitar players have been mentioned and clips have been played on the PiratesWeek Radio podcast. I know that Tom Tomi-O" Hartwell of Hinton, West Virginia where he performs his original song, "Bucktooth Holler" and that is in the Oct. 4, 2009 episode. Then Shane Speal and Lowebow are also mentioned in the Oct. 11, 2009 episode. Apparently we may have a Pirate Radio station out there that is a friend of the Nation. Just stumbled upon this and I wonder if the guy running the pirate station is a member of the Nation. Anyone know?

I noticed CB Nation has a link for tabs but there is little posted. anyone have anything they could send me?? I have been tearing it up on this three string thing. Also, anyone know of any software I can download for creating my own tabs??
