except for a Precision Bass, I pretty much play acoustic guitar, mandolin and mandola, if you call it playing.

There are a lot of young folks into this kind of music, so I think we'll hear a lot of good stuff coming out.


I'll leave it with a song written by my avatar/Guthrie in 1950s called Old Man Trump, performed by Ryan Harvey, Ani DiFranco, and Tom Morello.

Is this today?? Sounds like 40s. bobbieinok Jan 2018 #1
