That's a pontoon yacht

If you could instantly become a master musician, what instrument would it be?

Electric guitar seems like my easy choice, but steel lap guitar and hammered dulcimer are calling from the depths of my soul.

Banjo.

Rocky Top! Plus if you can banjo, you can play the others if you are a master musician…

 

[VolsDoc81TX]

Piano for me too. There is nothing cooler than walking into a room, sitting down at a piano and ripping through a cool song. I may have hated it as a child but I wish my parents would have made me take piano lessons.

Strangely enough, piano would come in second behind banjo for me.

I've always thought this is what a competent AD should sound like----so happy we have him at UT

Elk meat is awesome. I’d love to have one processed to put in the freezer

Funny thing to me as I have been playing guitar almost my whole (pun intended) life and there are only 12 natural notes in Western music. Only so many variations and no wonder we hear the same patterns from one song to another.

Storm is about to begin here in E Tenn. stay alert

 

[Jackcrevol]

Dobro.

Just listen to some Jerry Douglas and it will be like a glimpse of heaven on earth.

Was at Lobster Trap in Ashevegas in '11. Having the Lobstah Sammich n' a Franziskaner. Guy seated to right of us at the bar worked for Jerry's crew, who was playing at Orange Peel.

Now, Ive given up Country, Rock N Roll (sans Led Zeppelin & Dead), for bluegrass. Hot Rize, Allison Krauss, Blue Highway, and Newgrass Revival spark an immediate conversation.

My bucket is Tim OBrien and Jerry Douglas playing Hey Joe or Blue Night at Telluride. Guy is a great follow on Facebook.

It's a song about how our flesh (sin) is a disease that needs to be eaten away by God

Song explanation by vocalist Jason Wisdom:

The lyrical concept for this song is short and sweet. Necrotizing Fasciitis means "flesh eating bacteria", which fits the aura of the song perfectly – it is nasty. However, as is often true of great songs, there is an underlying metaphor in the text. In this case, the plague is Jesus. Kind of a dark metaphor huh? Well may, but the idea is very simple. Flesh, or more specifically the sinful nature of carnal self, is something that all humans struggle with, and Christ is the only true power for defeating that sinful nature. And so, we cry out for Him to infest our bodies and devour our flesh. EMBRACE THE PLAGUE!

I have always been hard rock/metal oriented but bluegrass players are like a different step. And I am digging old school country these days. The words on Harper Valley PTA crack me up. Good eye candy as well.

One last cool story bro.

Had chance to work in public radio. Most folks that worked at Station were music buffs or musicians. It was either 2000 or 2001 when John Hartford died, everyone at station wept. ... Everyone. If you like music, spp Banjo, check this out.

 

[TheRain]

Am I wrong to say it feels like every name on that list is very possible?

70's AM radio was the best.

I feel like the crazy home baseball games leading up to Omaha were big for football recruiting last season. I expect this year to be the same

My oldest son 22, took interest in the piano when he was around 9-10 years old. He took lessons probably 2-3 years, best money I’ve ever spent. The boy can flat play

My daughter is 10 and loves it
