Gutbucketeer and I (Sidewalk Bob) will be performin' tomorrow, Oct. 7th at the Page County, Va. Heritage Festival from noon to 1:00... The festival will be held at the Page County Fairgrounds 1 mile north of Luray just off Route 340... So if any Catters don't have anything to do and would like to catch our unique style of North Mississippi hill country stomp blues, then come on down, 'er up, 'er over... Bobert |

My fingertips went numb one at a time and with 10 miniutes left had to resort to nuthin' but slide an' using the fingernail on my pickin' hand as a flat pick 'cause nuthin' else was workin' any more... Glad to have it behind me... I'll never play agin under 50 degrees for that long... Gugbucketeer we're far behind me in the loss of feeling in the fingers but we did very well, all things considered... Bobert |

Several years ago I was playing guitar outside and while it was coolish it was nothing like as cold as you had it - I do remember aiming for a C chord and it wasn't there - I never found it either! Cheers JennieG |

There was a guy in a whell chair who had a scrunched up face and you could tell he had spent most of his life in a wheeel chair but 'bout half way thru the gig he really got into the music an' he had use of one leg and started kickin' with the beat... Then he pulls out a danged harmonica, which I doubt he could actually play, and pretended to play along with us... Sniff... That made the entire thing worth it just seein' that guy diggin' what we were doin'... Bobert |

Singing, "I got the frostbite blues, oh lawdy, lawdy, I got the frostbite blues..." Until I heard your story I was going to volunteer to come out and play next year at your shindig. As you may know my mothers family is in those hollers up there and I still play my grand fathers guitar; he lived just a few miles from you there. I learned my a few of earliest songs from my uncle Matt of Honeyville (near Stanley). I'll tell you about my family up there at the Getaway, and my friends the Kniceleys from over in Berryville. cheers, chance |
