Hi Mark Lalonde,

Thank you for excepting me as a new friend I wrote to you because I am in the Ontario Canada region, Newmarket, just north of Toronto.

I am back on Cigar Box Nation and just saw on face book the woman singer that closed out the festival. She was great Samantha Fish. Nice sound and vocal performance.

I have a fun Bluesy slide guitar lyric video to share with you and original tune called 'Whisky Drinkin' Woman' I am interested in making a four string Cigar Box for slide guitar.

Please check it out.

All is good,
