Classy Shel!

What can I say that hasn't already been said? That was a great opening with the lovely Ausie pic's and the playing together.

Then you moved on to signing the banner and not to forget the nice things you said about the site and community. You look so comfy in front of camera.

Finishing off with a lovely and well played tune from Joan. Just great!

Fantastic! B) :)

Thanks for the compliments guys, that's so nice to hear.

Tom - Thanks Tom I'm so glad you liked it. I've so enjoyed your videos. Comfy in front of the camera...haha...well if only I felt that way while playing and singing. Something to aim for. Thanks.

Beaker - Thanks. I really enjoy your playing, so it's a treat to hear that you've enjoyed the song. But, what accent? It's you guys that talk funny. :). I've also loved watching the banner's tour it's a lot of fun.

Jay - Thanks Jay. I'm biased, but I do love Sydney. We are lucky here. I'm sure you'd enjoy a trip down under. And "awesome"...WOW, that's very cool coming from you.

Thanks guys.

Hi Michelle,

Wow! Nice video. I’m with Vanessa . . . . . nice thumb wrap on the classical guitar. It left me wondering how you accomplished it. You must have a mile-long thumb (great for hitchhiking). Do you use some medieval stretching device to get it that way? Great job on my favorite Joan Baez song. You really own that guitar . . . . . . er . . . . . both figuratively and literally.

Glad you got a kick out of the bag-o-picks. Your post on your search was the inspiration for including them with the Banner. I was afraid that the little fellas might have gotten off the bus when the Banner took its side trip between Seattle and the Quad Cities, or may have been confiscated at Customs as some sort of Rock-and Roll contraband.

Thanks for posting!

Thanks Hydro!

Regarding the thumb thing, no I don't have an especially long thumb. I do have a freakishly long thumb nail on the other hand but that's another story. The real secret is that it's all Nessa's fault. B) She said she could manage the thumb wrap on her classical and so the challenge was set. I just planted my pinky and third fingers and stretched up from there. It did take a bit of practicing and focus, but came together in the end well enough.

Now...if I can just get Nessa to challenge me on each of the gazillion other awesome things she does brilliantly ... Well by the time I'm about 250 I might be as good a player as she is today. :)

Yes very cute bag of rock contraband. Hey ... If the pen is mightier than the sword, how mighty do you think the pick is? It got me to wondering about the amount of change that has come about in the world due to music, guitar music specifically... played by picks. Well that could be preeeeeeeety darn mighty. Yes?

Got a status report on Frankenpick? :)

Thanks for the enthusiastic response.

Shel
