You gave me a idea. I went on the net and looked the Ted Nugent "Fred Bear song." I was jammin' along, all alone here, since my wife was out doing a church thing. When it hit me, I wonder if Uncle Lou has ever done this song on video. I didn't find it in your video's. Any thoughts? Preston
Sorry to here you won't be at Beard's on the 24th. I attended the Uke session on last Monday at Red Sky Stage and was asked if I was the guy who played at "open mic" at Beard's. I guess all guys with beards and CBG's look alike. Is there any other place, you plan to play in the near future, say before "Opening Day?" Do you use bow or rifle or both? Preston
I've wondered for a long time, just how to contact you. I went as far as to drive around the Bliss area, but to no avail. I meet a friend of yours at work. He told me, he's heard you at church. I just wanted to thank you for perking my interest (cbg's). It's been quite a ride so far.
yup gotta love beagles. her name is lilly and every time i take her for a walk down to the river little kids wanna pet her and the older folks wanna talk and reminisce about their younger days when they had a beagle, but lilly being a beagle just wants to skip all that and get in the woods and chase deer around!
A real good job on a great blind Willie song. I like it a lot. I love ol Willie. I have the Soul of A Man CD. I wish I could do a song for the tribute, but I have not found one I can do any kind of justice. I think if Willie could come back right now, he'd think, "What's that old white man doin to my song? Geeze that geetar be loud. Shee-it, he do me proud."
This video is the unboxing and the demonstration of a beautiful, six stringer built by Louie Lamanna. Join Louie and I June 15 at the second annual Pittsburg...

Lou,
A real good job on a great blind Willie song. I like it a lot. I love ol Willie. I have the Soul of A Man CD. I wish I could do a song for the tribute, but I have not found one I can do any kind of justice. I think if Willie could come back right now, he'd think, "What's that old white man doin to my song?

Nice old arch top. Had not seen it before.
God bless,
