Harlan IA International CBG mini fest - 9/15

I had a fun day with Milva and Brian Pearse of the U.K., Maddog of a land called Nebraska and Ted, my home town playing buddy. If you get 4-5 people playing and singing CBGs, I think you can call it a fest.

  Largest Harlan,IA.  International CBG Fest ever !    Great job organizing this event, Uncle John. It is a small world.   I've booked this venue before and wasn't able to fill it a 1/4 as much .     Great performance  everyone.

Thanks for looking, AGP.  We needed an Aussie representative.

Uncle J Fest, brilliant!! Didn't know Brian and Milva were out there, small world.

   Another example of small world. Today I was busking in Ely and some American people who were on holiday came up and started to talk about the instruments. They said they had a friend who's son made Cigar Box Guitars. I asked what their name was in case I'd heard of them...the woman said to her partner "What's Dan Speal's son's name? I said "Shane??" Yep!
