Yeah, and I really love Bob's man of constant sorrow. I've been on Audiogalaxy (I know, I know, I know, I'm sorry) downloading as many different versions of the songs I want to cover as I can get ahold of. Actually it's fairly enriching--I'm planning to at the very least buy the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band album with that excellent Nine Pound Hammer, and I'm finding some obscure (to me) artists that do really great things with these songs.

What I'm basically doing is taking apart the music for these and trying to rewrite them the way I might've written them. It's a lot of fun to play with the composition of songs like these, I've done some interesting things so far combining Nine Pound Hammer and Take This Hammer (I'm thinking of calling it General Hammer Song on the album.) I think I'm going to have to learn some more banjo very quickly for this, though. I have banjo lines in my head for a lot of the songs that I just can't play. Anyway, thanks everybody. This has been a lot of help.
