I've just started some research and a cd on Horace Weston and found this group - fantastic! Look forward to participating.

It's been kind of slow going but I hope it'll be done this year. I'm having to squeeze it in between making a living with guitar. Its hard to find recording people that don't want to make it sound like a bluegrass banjo - I get a lot of puzzled looks in the studio.
I think I saw a post on here that said you collected old music journals - I'm looking for a library somewhere that has some copies of Gatcomb's Banjo and Guitar Gazette. The Library of Congress has it on Microfilm but I'd love to be able to look at some actual issues. You ever gotten your hands on any of these?

Spring break is just over a week away -- perhaps more time then...

I am so glad you've set up this group. Thanks.

With the festive season drawing near, I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for creating the Ning site. I am sure that everyone who has contributed and learned from it, appreciates the fun that we have all had over the past months. So to you and all the members, Merry Christmas and have a safe one.

Would 'The Kilties' and ' The Jovial Huntsman ' be plagerism, I wonder? Very Interesting!

At 6:40am on March 15, 2010, Ray Jones gave Carl Anderton a gift…: Pop the Champagne
I haven't spilt a drop of that beer. I have sent you a bottle of champers. Live it up! You are only young once.

I simply don't prepare in advance enough to make the videos - meaning the battery in my camera is always dead when I come to record! So I default to audio ... Note to self: recharge battery when I get home!

Best,
A.
