Uncle John gifted me this diddley recently and I wanted to say thanks and show it off. Thanks John, it's been a lot of fun so far!

Sounds great! It would be cool to pass it along and see how different folks do different things with the same diddley.

Thanks, Todd!   That did put a smile on my face.  And thanks to Clock.  

Glad you like it.   METAL?!?   Ha.    I never expected that, but it sounds snarly good.  

Yup.   Play it bit and feel free to pass it on.  That thing has its travelling shoes.
