I don't know about the old time players Steve but it plays well along the North Norfolk Coast.  You don't need cups medals or trophies.

Vickie's probably right, but I enjoyed the tune. Maybe someone will film you as a 21st century redo of Easy Rider. Drop the amp off in Nashville, though...

This has a great bounce to it.  It feels like I'm riding the Harley with you.  Nice tune!

I like the spoken narative of the trip too.

Very nice.  They tell me there is a bluegrass enclave at Clifftop way down back where everyone gets drunk and runs around naked, but I didn't get down there last year to see if it was true.  You might disturb the old time crowd a little bit with this, but I'm guessing the national slide will fit in just fine.

I think it was a really really good song! But it kept mentioning bluegrass and "burning that 5-string up" and I kept waiting for the bluegrass banjo to kick in, with some pornographic banjo shredding.

But hey, that's just me...

It had a great groove.

Laurie, Yup me too,If I get to record and release this tune I hope to interest Pat Schaber in playing some Psyco Porno sherdding on this one as thats just what it needs, I play claw style and my 3 finger scruggs stuff is strickly motor scooter. I have just come into a Golden era and am trying to cross over into the Dark Side of bluegrass banjo..........Steve

I think the OT crowd needs their feathers ruffled a little more. I dig it, Steve! You're really good. I'm even more honored that you like anything I've done. You're too kind.

Surf banjo. Superfusion. You could stick in a couple samples from The Ventures. Nokie Edwards, watch out!
