There are still a handful of tickets left for the Guthrie and Uncle Larry record release parties in august 16 and 17…it’s about to be sold out

There are still tickets around if you wanna come see old Larry plunkin in the band behind Vince Gill at the Ryman for a few nights August 1-4

Guthrie and I are going to Hotlanta next week to film an episode with Rick Beato talking about our new record as well, so keep an eye out for that too friends

A not so brief discussion about bending and a couple tunes you can learn if you’re muy bored.

Thank you guys so much for the flood of positive feedback about the Trip The Witch record….it means the world to Dean and myself.

Stay tuned for a my solo record which is coming VERY soon….in two formats…one with my annoying solos, and one with space for YOUR annoying solos.

You guys are awesome, thanks for the continued support….and to the 11 people who religiously watch every video i put up and still thumbs down it, suck a dick.
