I made the titanic video with my kids one afternoon so the light tone and whimsy was their imput into the song. Also I learned that song as a kid around a camp fire so I allways seem to hear it at an uptempo. I really appreciate your words on my last musician series. I am just waiting for the snow to melt and episode 6 will be finnished. I shoot with a very small crew of people and film mostly outside so weather is allways a factor. I am trying to work somewhere between parody, campy, and in a small way serious. I think there is a message in there someplace. I am also allways on the look out for music for my series. I only use cigar box music in it. So far I have been very lucky to get music from lots of really nice people here on the site. If you are ever interested let me know. I can think a lot of cool ways I could hear you in this project. Anyway, thanks again for your kind words. I will think about your comments on my vids, maybe I need to reshoot titanic at some point. Thanks for the thoughts to work with

Also, I just uploaded a video on youtube and cigarbox nation of me playin' the walkin' base line on my 3 string acoustic guitar set up kinda like Seasick Steve. Thanks so much Keni Lee for showin' me how to play that piece and openin' up a whole new world of guitar playin' for me.

Thanks for all of the lessons and tunes on You Tube.

At 3:08am on December 8, 2009, Dan Sleep said…: Well, I think Santa may be getting them for me. Do you have a direct link I can send to Santa? Thanks for your help.

At 2:43am on December 8, 2009, Dan Sleep said…: I saw you had a video CD. A lot of the instructional stuff I have found assumes more musical knowledge than I have. I am sort of looking for something really basic that shows someone how to play a song or two. I don't read music, I suppose I really should learn! LOL So I an just wondering how basic your video is. Thanks..Dan
