Can we fix this problem that did not happen with something that does not exist?

I would like to try “Frankie and Johnny” as done by Corey Harris. He does it on a dobro; but even though I prefer blues I have a little twang to my singing voice, so I think it’d sound AWESOME on a steel guitar. Might be a little more country, ya know?

Sweet! I’ve always wanted to try that, but then I just find another guitar

I’m just going to block you for the shear ugliness of your post, before I retweet it to fellow mountaineers.

My most gen-x take is that weed is too strong now. I like the old ways. It used to be like beer, now it’s like whiskey
