Anything Don shares with you will be well-worth it!

I would also suggest listening to as many master storytellers as possible, study how they deliver the lines, intersperse the music, etc. Two I can recommend, highly, would be Mudcatters Art Thieme, and Kendall Morse both of whose CDs are available .

Here's a Discography for Art Thieme and HERE is a thread about his latest CD at Folk Legacy. I also highly recommend his The Older I Get the Better I Was.

HERE's one about Kendall's CDs available at Folk Legacy, also.

Have fun and good luck!
