Hey, John

Post by nobby »

My arm is getting tired from administering a beat down on a troll on Bob's FB page.

Care to go a couple of rounds? :wink:

What's the a-hole's name? Will get on it tomorrow, it's a bit late now, considering that I've been drinking a bit and taking painkillers to try to get sleep in spite of the pain.

Not that it really does a hell of a lot of good. Mostly it just gets me annoyingly fuzzy.

Wow!

"John Knowles: Bob, thanks for posting the original article. It's a shame that it attracted all these comments about what is and is not property. There are plenty of things in our culture/economy that have value only by consensus. We seem to be experiencing a major realignment of who gets to decide what is valuable… and we have not been invited to the conversation."

John, who I hung out with at the Country Music Hall of Fame when we first moved here, is one of a handful of legendary players honored by Chet Atkins as being a "Certified Guitar Player."

Slamming professional musicians seems to be seen as a way to legitimize jealous amateurs.
