It's funny because it is so true.
"When you have to shoot, shoot.  Don't talk."
     Tuco--The Good the Bad and the Ugly

"First comes smiles, then lies.  Last is gunfire."
     Roland Deschain

"Every man steps in the manure now an again, trick is not ta stick yer foot in yer mouth afterward"

What do you call a musician without a girlfriend...?

Homeless.

Terrible fatal accident out on the highway last night.  A van carrying a local band flipped over killing 3 musicians and a  drummer..(rim shot no longer available)

I'll try to repent the drummer remark here

I'm glad to see Mr. Helm still able to get out and tour and play. He had a long battle with Throat cancer, and has learned to overcome

Just found this, one of my favorites Johnny Cash songs, now by the writer instead:



Mongrel Historian


Always get the water for the coffee upstream from the herd.

Ab Ovo Usque ad Mala

The time has passed so quick, the years all run together now.

OK for the day after St Paddy's Day, Bluegrass has strong Irish roots.  I offer the only crude Bluegrass song I've ever heard:

OK, Guy Clark is an old favorite of mine:



Of course if you don't mention Hank the Father in a song, (remove hat when mentioning Hank the Father) you ain't country:



And you'd better be able to do this one or ya ain't country:

Here's one for ya Leo, local boy born an Okie.  Yes Dr. was earned, retired now a Professor of Philosophy at Nebraska Wesleyan University.  Been followin' him for 35 years, plays anywhere for cheap or free.  Sound ain't the best, writes most of his own, calls it Country Blues.  I love that tin guitar he's got, when I see him play I ask him to play his tin guitar.

He loves to interact with his audience.



You make it here sometime we'll find where he's playin' if not his # is in the book, lives a few blocks from me.  Bet he's play for a couple of bucks or coffee.

They wanted a little too much for it.

I think American Resonator Guitars start around $500.  These Cigar box creations sound pretty good espically for the blues
