  1. I was at a WLW in Pgh Pa in your guitar track, and one of the highlights was learning your reasons to use a capo. I was a "macho" I don't need no stinkin capo, Barre chord guy, but now have a capo in each guitar case thanks to your insights.
    A while back you wrote that you would do a series on different strumming styles. I would really like to see that on the blog.
    Thanks, Steve

  2. That was a long time ago Steve. Glad to have had an impact. It's funny, there was a "are you sure it's OK to be telling guys to capo?" guy in every town I did clinics in.

    I will start working on the strumming grooves soon. It's on my short list. Didn't know I was going to spend so much time on the drop 2 lessons!

    Blessings, Tom.
