2/18/2009 5:58:16 PM Andy is it getting any better? I left more comments in the topics. One thing I brought up is don't try to talk in a noisy bar...worst thing for you. See topics for other stuff I mention. This is all I know about it...cold dry air will aggravate it too...stay away from smoke too.
2/1/2009 5:40:23 PM Hi Andy Thank you very much for your kind comment. Some highly accomplished, emotive music here. Congratulations
1/22/2009 10:39:41 AM thanks for dropping by... i'm just playing 'postcard blues' and wow you got that lightning hopkins style down to a tee. vocals too. authentic. right on. i used to do lightning's 'ain't it crazy'. you've inspired me to dust it off and see if i can swipe some of your licks while i'm at it. yah, i got that larrivee on ebay for a grand. from philadelphia. funny, cuz they're made right here in vancouver. but i liked that mahogany top and there it was. john
1/19/2009 5:44:48 AM Hey Andy thanks for the visit - hope my 'stream all' is OK! Really like the electric version of 'Sweet Jayne' listening now! (Will check out the acoustic version next) Both versions OK! ROCK ON>>>(With the Blues)
1/8/2009 12:56:05 PM Hi Andy - Happy New Year! Like the Django Rheinhardt Tune! - COOL! Your Sweet Jayne track does not seem to play? ATB Colin
1/7/2009 7:04:28 AM hey andy thanks a lot for your comment best to you kito peters
1/3/2009 12:54:06 PM Andy, you are so sweet! I really appreciate you letting me know about the stream situation. I had no idea. A while back, none of my songs were playing... so I reloaded all of my mp3s. I had never tried the stream function... so I was oblivious until your visit. I'm really looking forward to bringing in more music this year. Its been 2 years since our first ep was released. My big resolution is that of working in more focused time for songwriting, instead of after hours when I can barely keep my eyes open. I know I've said it before, but just gotta say again... THANK YOU for being "friends" with me. I am very grateful. peace... Auset
