HI Everyone!

I'm hesitant to speak on videos because I get startled by Youtubes that have sound "unexpectedly"
That is to say- sometimes, you're expecting music, or words.....

Anyway, what do you guys think?


PS- it's a gorgeous cushion and ring in the youtube as well....

I like something extra that the music gives.  Maybe if you just tell us that a particular video has sound when you post it?  That way, people who are watching in "quiet" places can turn the sound down.

Tell Marc that his guitar sounds great!

LOL on the bit about a warning for those at work! Shouldn't you all be working and not surfing? 

GREAT playing Marc!!!

Hey, folks-
Thanks for the kind words about the guitar accompanyment.
David's been asking me for some time to provide him with some tracks - I finally got around to it. 

The Allemande is from the 1st Lute Suite in e minor.  It is the same suite that has the famous(?) Bourree.  Well, I think it's famous.

Thanks again.
Now, somebody buy the ring, and I'll give him another track.

I wish I could buy this one!  I looked for you outside the METwhen I was there a couple of weeks ago - is that only a summertime gig??  I did mention you to my family in NYC, so next time you play there, don't be alarmed if a dozen or so mad looking celtic types turn up - they're friendly!

Hi Jen-
Yeah, it's a summertime gig.
And, this summer, I played less than I had in the past.  Sort of had an off-year.
Be back in the spring tho.
Nice that you looked for me - sorry I wasn't around.  Was probably on a golf course.

I guess you either get golf or you don't, like most other things.
Unlike the majority of those in our society, I don't get sports in general.
I get bored watching people do stuff on TV.
With golf, I'm doing it myself - in beautiful surroundings, with (sometimes) fun companions, playing an intriguing and difficult game.  And then there are the moments when I hit a first class shot - really nail one - and it's a great feeling to have - so I go back again and again.  The sights, smells, textures, sounds, and feel of it all are awesome.  It's total immersion.
Does that explain it - sort of?

Just saw this, I'm sooo behind.  I love the guitar with the video.  The ring is just awesome, and the music helps, sort of like in a store, you know, the music "sells", or makes you want to buy.  Does that make sense?
