I just want to say thanks to everyone in this group that told me to keep practicing and especially those that told me to keep trying clawhammer. I've been practing clawhammer a lot more recently and I can really feel the progress, I've been practing daily as well as playing with my dad as often as possible, I've also started taking lessons from Chris Coole as he lives nearby. Just wish I had started sooner.

I'm so pleased that you are having such great progress. Keep up the good work!

I think everyone who didn't start in diapers wishes they had started earlier.

Great news. BHO certainly provides a great support mechanism amongst other things.

Yeah I love that song, he's taught me arkansas traveler and Highlander's farewell so far. He tours a lot so I only really get to see him like once a month.
