I don't listen to the radio anymore. It wasn't an effort or boycott on my part. I just found it plain old sucks. I will occasionally listen to college radio. At least they still play what they want (be it good or bad) rather than what they're being told. I think the 50's was probably the peak (I'm a little too young to remember that) but for me 60's AM radio's collection of music was great.

It's easy to forget how good Jerry Reed is with the whole Smokey and the Bandit thing. And of course Chet Atkins is no slouch either!!!!!! Thanks for the link.

Congratulations Russell!!!!

Shouldn't this post be moved to the Coon Hunting Section?

I gotta say, I was enjoying that thread and everyone was being very respectful and their thoughts were lucid. I posted once but was enjoying other member's views. I feel like it helps you get to know someone. I was dissappointed to see it was closed. Quite a few topics in this section have absolutely nothing to do with music and remain open. As a post reader, you always have the option to not read it. As an admin, you have to agree with livebaitman's interpretation of the rules. Is it arbitrary to delete a post about politics but allow posts about holidays and TV shows?
Of course you could argue I'm just being argumentative but I just reviewed the topics in this section and only 1/2 even relate to music.
Sorry...just my opinion (which my wife says isn't worth much and should be kept to myself!!)

Ken, you're so right. Voting for someone because of the color of his skin is just so wrong. It's a shame that a good percentage of these 1st time voters cast their vote in complete ignorance. Obama was not my guy but he has touted change which is sorely needed. Now it's time to "walk the walk". As an American he has my complete support.
I just wanted to chime in and say how shameful it is for an African American voter to say "we got in"; would that be as acceptable had McCain won and a white person said the same? I think not. Increased voter turnout is a fantastic thing but not when the voters are completely uninformed. Their votes dilute democracy...
I get off my soap box now.

Elixir Nanowebs for me... Light. But let your guitar dictate by what size it's set up for. I really have been happy with Elixir Nanos. They sound good and last longer. Unlike a lot of folks, I hate restringing my acoustics so longer life is better. I used to use Martin Marquis and still have some leftovers. If you're a newer player the Elixirs are kinder to your finger tips.

I own an EG561C Takamine and I couldn't like it more. It plays as well as most anything I've played. Add Elixir lights and play for days.

I've been looking at the Agile 3000. Thanks for the info. everything that is written is very positive. Enough so to convince me not to buy the Epi as I was originally planning. Looks like an equeal or better model from Agile for about 40% less.

Happy B'Day Russell and here's to many more (raising a "spirited" beverage in your honor)

Thanks cytania...that's extremely helpful. As far as the shop's response to me checking it, the slightest bit of grief and I'm out. Ironically, my least favorite place, Guitar Center, seems to be the most tolerant of thoroughly checking out an item. I bought my last acoustic there because of this. I got to sit for an hour playing several with very little intervention. I finally settled on a G series Tack which is my fav. Thanks again, you info is exactly what I was looking for.
