Never feel lonely - too many places to go to make music, play, sing, have a beer, meet people, gigs, concerts to organise. A day or two of peace is usually very welcome!

But if I DO feel lonely, I have two acoustic guitars, one electric guitar, an acoustic bass guitar, a box of blues harps, fiddle, appalachian dulcimer, tenor banjo, mandolin, tenor ukulele, electric violin, keyboard, high whistle in D and - if the worst comes to the worst - I can tap out "Dixie" with two pencils (one held against my mouth and the other tapping it).
