Nice article on Chet. http://www.nytimes.com/2001/07/01/obituaries/01ATKI.html What a nice guy. I especially loved this: Asthmatic as a child, Mr. Atkins learned how to play the banjo on days when he had to stay home from school. "I'd play it until the strings broke," he recalled. "When that happened, I'd just rip a wire out of the screen porch and tune 'er up again. It took me 20 years to learn I couldn't tune too well. And by that time I was too rich to care." ******************************************** Kate Bennett www.katebennett.com sponsored by Polysonics www.polysonics.com Discover the Indies at Taylor Guitars: http://www.taylorguitars.com/artists/awp/indies/bennett.html ********************************************
