Thanks all. I'm really enjoying the numerous versions of this tune... I find it a particularly challenging one to get hold of (at least for me) and applaud SirBibsALot for not sparing the rod. Plus this way he gets to snake all our hot licks :) B On Dec 17, 2010, at 4:18 PM, Linda wrote: > S

Very good points Gathel. I have already learned alot about myself watching my video attempts. Like do I really hold my pick like that?!! Kinda like listening to your own voice. We do tend to be our own worst critics. I also find this group very supportive of everyone's attempts and hope to have
