Thanks Derek! Those typewriter classes came in handy after all. I was doing 40 words a minute!

Cool talkin' blues + one string, Richard!

Down to the raw basics James! One string, two takes, a mic, and a collection jar. Thank you kind Sir!

Thanks Dennis! I have branched out, I believe I was playing in Hong Kong that evening. I have to pull out the lap Diddley once in a while, it’s a blast! Always appreciate your kind words, you got me started and will always influence my journey in CBG wonderland.

Nancy, you are incredible! I need to get me a cat box ha! That’s beyond funny! That would double my revenue instantly, and probably gives change so I can keep playing. Catitude rules! Love it Nancy, your the best, thank you!

This is my fourth attempt at playing this beast, and all live! Something about a one string brings the primal out! Thank you StorminSteve, I really appreciate it! I’m more comfortable with five more strings.
