Post Bob's open strings
Hi, everyone.

Bob Culbertson's latest video shows off one of his current experiments well.

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RB4w7j3jzwA[/youtube]

He's using a capo on the bass side and is really working those open strings. It's wonderful to see the top players pushing the instrument into new areas. It's also wonderful just to hear him play.

-Eric

Couldn't agree with you more Eric. Bob's playing is always an inspiration to hear and watch.
Thanks for posting this.

Cheers,
Eric.

Don't be discouraged! You too, could do this. All you have to do is start playing 12 hours a day.

Sigh, indeed.

Seriously, though, it is inspiring for me to see what Emmett, Bob, Steve, Greg, Rob, Tony, Kevin, et. al. do with the Stick. They show us what's possible and what we can all aspire to. Kudos to everyone who is showing us the way.

-Eric

Oh, that was multiple-meaning sigh. Yes, there's a small element of frustration in there, but the MAIN sentiment behind the sigh was the kind of music that's capable of being made on the Stick. Just wonderful.
