Thanks, eberg. Maybe as I see how it develops and where I might be able to fit in unobtrusively I might change my mind.
Not to derail the thread any further, but that Frogwhompers link was interesting. They obviously share a lot of the same influences that I have. If you think you might like bluegrass with a more ragged edge, I highly recommend a group that I think is out of Minnesota, called Trampled By Turtles. They seem at times to be teetering right on the edge of control, and it suits their music really well. They're also available at cdbaby. "Codeine" is a special favorite of mine. That album in the link is fantastic, but they also have another one with what I think may be one of the best-named songs of all time: "My Brother Works for the CIA When He's Not Doing Time."![]()
I'll check it out a bit later, my dad saw the Frogwhompers a lot in college, they were from Athens county OH, Ohio University, but they always hosted the bluegrass/hippy festivals around the area...
I don't have any home recording gear anymore. All of that stuff is long gone. I appreciate the invite/offer, but I'll have to pass. However, I'll definitely keep an eye on this and see what you guys can come up with.
We need groupies, Lynch
