Thanks for your kind comment on my videos. Yes "Bound To Roll" is just a little tune that I came up with . . but I was going for an old time traditional blues sound. Thanks!

"Excellantro" is hysterical. amazing. and second... if you want to use old video clips in reverse for your music... you can download allllll sorts of things from this website: http://www.archive.org/mediatypes-browse.php?mediatype=movies most of it is totally fine to use (legally speaking... and if you mess with the stuff that's not legal to use... know one will ever know ;)... and then if you have even just Imovie you can use that to reverse it, slow it down, speed it up... or if you go for the "big guns" use final cut!...(which I'm hopefully getting my paws on soon)! Thanks for all yr kind words :) ~Heidi

At 3:06pm on August 26, 2011, Uncle John said…: Hi JP. What' buzzin? Thanks for your comments on Cigar Box Guitar song. Have not seen your new video yet. Caution, after York Fest, there are likely to be floods of videos for a while. Hey, you have some photos I have not seen. Got to check them out.

At 12:06am on August 24, 2011, Bluesheart said…: Thanks JP. THe piezo sandwich is nice. Isolates it from the box so it only picks up the string vibrations. Does have a lower volume though so ya have to crank the amp more.

At 12:06am on August 23, 2011, Bluesheart said…: Really like that banjo with the drum body!

At 2:12pm on August 13, 2011, mike anderson Blues Box Guitars said…: so, what are you building next?

At 6:10am on August 9, 2011, Uncle John said…: Great news on Rod. thanks for passing it on.

At 1:36am on August 9, 2011, Uncle John said…: JP,

The square joke is less funny when you see the off center, crooked neck git in my shop. Sucker plays great, though. Thanks for your comments. I did write that simple blues.

JP, Rod is still in may prayers. Got an idea this morning. Really! I do want to go back to KC next year and I hope, get a motel room next to you and Rod. Do you want to get up and play a song or more? You may be ready by then - Bad To The Bone would be good. Or you can play washboards for me or pick a song I do and sing while I play-- what ever works. Going to make Toby the same offer.

John
