tom curley here. mountain dulcimer player with a minor in bodhran. it all started in a music store in norfolk, virginia back in '73 owned by one bob zentz. he showed me how to play a limber jack to bluegrass banjo and i've loved the music ever since. there is nothing like a parlor pickin' on a hot saturday night to stir me into wild folky abandon. i currently live on o'ahu, hawai'i in the middle of slack key paradise. i down loaded the data base and am determined to sing every last bloody song in it at least once. many happy returns to all of us. --doodlezak
