Thread Name: Doc Watson
Subject: RE: Doc Watson and Jayto and FlatpickL
Well, I'm howdybud@insightbb.com and the list serv I speak of is the flatpickL that anyone can join. It's about flatpicked guitar and even pickers like Jack Lawrence occasionally chime in with a post . Go to, http://www.flatpick-l.org/list.shtml and join up! It's free. But I will say its BUSY and your inbox will be full DAILY. I love it anyway.

Sounds like you're a pro with a lot of stage experience. I'm a classical guitarist turncoat gone Doc Watson nuts so of course I do a lot of his fingerstyle material while I've been learning to flatpick these last 41/2 years or so to catch up to my fingerpickin'.

Drop me a line.
R U still in KY?
We could pick a few for fun?
Bluegrass Brewing Company has a Wednesday night jam in St Matthews here in Louisville.
There's an Old Time jam at Steilberg String Instruments in Beuchel next Wednesday at 6:00 too.

I'm here in Louisville.

PS: also re-discovering Grandpa Jones, whom I never thought of before except as a Hee Haw comedian. But he had some really good songs and was a real performer of Old Time music who I am now appreciating and learning some of his material. Look up his great Nephew Phillip Steinmetz who is doing a lot of Grandpa's stuff and is a championship league old timey banjo frailer (and plays Granpa's GALLAGHER guitar! Which was the first OM Gallagher ever built commisioned by Grandpa's wife for his Christmas present in 1968!)
