	pastorharry says: 12/25/2017 4:40:16 PM To blow them up larger, go to my home page and open media, click on photos. The group shot with Stewart looks like Waikiki .
	darwinyarwin says: 12/25/2017 5:29:07 PM Is that Tad Diltz?
	Joe Connor says: 12/25/2017 5:32:57 PM Bob usually played a plectrum. It's interesting to see him with a long-neck five string. By Tad Diltz, do you mean Henry Diltz?
	pastorharry says: 12/25/2017 8:36:09 PM yes, Henry Diltz I believe. The picture with Shane, he's next to Stewart's Blond Vega Xcel, His D-28, and Nick's Tenor.
	pastorharry says: 12/25/2017 8:44:42 PM Just added a more recent picture of Henry.
	Joe Connor says: 12/26/2017 5:02:51 AM Here's a tape of John Stewart on Hugh Hefner's old show. Henry Diltz is one of the guys backing Stewart. youtube.com/watch?v=bmpIiwgicWs
	john bange says: 12/26/2017 7:45:57 AM great thread and video...but those three instruments, just leaning against a wall with no other support make the hair on the back of my neck stand up.
	CraigRison says: 1/2/2018 3:37:15 PM Those are great pics, but ALL them folks seem to have their capo on the ol' 3rd fret! Makes me feel better about mine being there about 2/3rds of the time - and SO grateful when I can move it down or off :)
	pastorharry says: 1/2/2018 6:14:27 PM I use my capo mostly on the 1 or 2 fret, or play open.I have two other banjos to play in G-C.

	Old Gray Coat Linked by Bluesage 7 months ago: My first attempt at working out this great Tony Rice composition on the open long neck. It lays our pretty well!

MP3: What Would The Prophets Say? Linked by jbakervt 2 years ago: The religious basis of authority in the Middle East (or anywhere for that matter) is the source of a lot of suffering and is unsustainable. The violence is mostly perpetrated on women and children.
MP3: You'll Never Leave Texas Alive Linked by jbakervt 2 years ago: A sad murder ballad of a sort. Some murderers wear nice clothes and use pens and paper to kill and never see their victims.
MP3: Ten Years On Linked by jbakervt 2 years ago: A lament, written for the 10th anniversary of the Sandy Hook school shooting. Sadly there are still parents who are irresponsible or foolish, and parents who suffer as a result.
MP3: Shutdown The System Linked by jbakervt 2 years ago: The pursuit of money is alienating, enervating, and exhausting. Here’s a song of resistance to finance capitalism.
MP3: Take The Wheel Linked by jbakervt 2 years ago: A song about mentorship, inspired by my mentor and HIS mentors too, that takes the form of the story of a ship’s mate being “shown the ropes”. The old sea captain may also have been a long-neck player
