As an accomplished and award winning home brewer I've always loved the song just not for the music but for the lyrics also.
You did justice to the song. Great playing and singing!
I've never heard of Jim Thackery. I checked out his MySpace and I like him a lot! Great choice for the style you want to learn.
Probably played in a George Michael tribute band.
That was great! Of all your tunes I've checked out that song was the best.
One of the things I look for a great song is if I get shivers down my spine when certain notes are played. I know it is...

That was awesome! Like bigG alluded to, there had to be smoke coming off the fretboard and your finger tips.
Thanks a whole bunch guys! I'm going to get Audacity and the interface thingy.
I'm not sure when it's all going to come together but I'll post some slide stuff soon.
I'd like to add my attempt at slide on this backing track but I have no idea on how to record. What do I need on my computer as far as a mike or downloaded program to record over the backing track?...
I don't have gas for guitars usually but I'm experiencing major gas for that lap steel. It is simply gorgeous! I've been playing my cheap lap steel and just loving it so much I've neglected my...
They sound awesome! I've played "Grits" over and over for about an hour and my wife just came home. She asked who I was playing because she liked it a lot.
I got to get their CD.

Thanks wingsdad! Those sites are a good start for me.
I decided on Dobro open G tuning and found some starting licks and stuff.

Somewhere I saw comments from some blues contest that the best player used no effects at all...
How long do you need to boil them? Do they need to be let loose from the way they are packaged?
When I did the first string change I thought the strings I was replacing looked just like the ones I was putting on.
But I'm still a nubie at guitars so I went and changed the strings anyways.
...
I didn't stretch them because I never had to with the D'addario's nor with the Martin's I use on my acoustic guitar.
After playing for around two hours last night they seem to be holding tune...
I have a Ibenez Artcore semi hollow body guitar. When I bought it I immediately changed the strings because I heard that is where guitar company's save some money by putting on cheap strings.
I...
As you can tell by my screen name I love the blues. One of the first albums I heard that got me on the blues train was "Hooker and Heat." I played the **** out of that album and searched for other...
