Joe is such a kind, lovely man. A total role model. No ego, just an exceptional musician, and a humble human being. He (and the whole of Chickenfoot, band and crew) were so supportive and encouraging. If Joe is up for it, we shall work together again, that's for sure!
It's lovely when your heroes turn out to be good people!

I LOVE COOKING. I wouldn't say I am particularly great at it, but I really do enjoy it.
After lots of traveling, there is nothing quite like a home-cooked meal. I know the internet is flooded with pictures of people's dinner, but if anyone has any old family recipe's they want to share, here is a GREAT place to put em.
Bonus points if they include wine.

Just adding a note that for some odd reason, we always seem to sell a little more merch when Amber is working the booth? No idea why that is... D

Sure, I can do that! LOVE playing As The Crow Flies, although the absolute definitive version is by Rory Gallagher on Irish Tour '74. It's just a case of playing catch-up with him! It's in open D tuning, and really there are only two shapes to learn, the first one you just move around a bit . I'll get on these. This will be fun!

This whole Street Team thing!
Thought I'd share this with you...
I woke up this morning to a lovely email from my manager, passing on a request from a radio station in Cincinnati. A fan had called in telling them they had received their copy of The Outsider through the pledge campaign and raved about how much they enjoyed it. This station had played my last two records, and reached out to us with lovely kind words asking if they get a copy of it ASAP.
First off, thanks to the person who rang in, what an honour that is for me that you like the album so much you feel compelled to do this. Gives me a tremendous warm, lovely feeling.
Secondly, this is just a brilliant example of how big a difference you guys can make.
A HUGE difference.

Been a massive fan of Richard Thompson for a long, long time now. From his days in Fairport, and with Linda (his then wife) and his incredible solo career. I recently got to meet him, and what a lovely chap he is too. Utterly inspiring. The Thompson family recently got together to record an album. This is the first tune i've heard from it, and is written/performed by Richard and Linda's son, Teddy. He has an amazing career too. Love his stuff. CANNOT stop playing this tune. Beautiful. Here's the link to the sound cloud! CLICK

Hi there Paul, great to see you on here! Might have told you this before, but went to Wigan Pier on a school trip when I was a kid. Learned an awful lot about George Formby Thanks for joining us, D

I think this is a great idea! Definitely up for it.
We have Island Bound as a suggestion, which is great!
Any other tunes (old or new) you may be interested in?
