BIT 18 – March 5, 2008

Well hello again. Let’s get caught up from my last BIT…

While we were in the Atlanta area I had the opportunity to play at Freedom Chapel, held at the Dominion Christian High School.

Playing my Baby Taylor at the McKinney’s Coffeehouse, ACC.

Before we left the area I also played a concert at the Atlanta Christian College (NOTE: Now Point University) in McKinney’s Coffeehouse. After the show I had a really nice time speaking with their Guitar Professor and some of the students about the country style fingerpickin’ techniques I use. Continue reading “BIT-18”

BIT 16 – December 13, 2007

Wow, this has been a great trip around the country… lots of beautiful places.  Dad and I headed out towards Southern California and went through Colorado with it’s majestic Rockies where we stopped to visit a good friend just outside Denver.  We then traveled down into New Mexico and stayed with some really great folks in Santa Fe.  They’re more like family now.

Afterwards, we continued on to Arizona where dad wanted me to see this place called Sedona, a gorgeous colorful town he remembered from years ago. So me, being “resident navigator” of this entourage, found a “shortcut” on the map. Well, at least that’s Continue reading “BIT-16”

Bit 11 – MAY 25, 2007

Greetings from Panama! Since my last post my parents and I had a nice visit to Costa Rica for about a week.  I got to meet a guy, Gary, who was the drummer for the Turtles!  Remember their hit…”Happy Together”?

Of course, he said that hit happened 3 years after he had left the group… bad timing! 🙂  It was still pretty cool to meet him.  It was also nice to see so many of our friends again.  It was a really nice visit.

When we returned, I did a Continue reading “BIT-11”

BIT 10 – March 19, 2007

Hello again, I hope you’re all in good health.

All is well here… I’ve been busy helping my Dad with a major project but it’s coming along pretty good!  Between work and practice I don’t have much time left in the day!

The Radio interview I mentioned went well. Everyone seemed to enjoy it.  I was also featured in a local newspaper article about my Dec. 29th concert!!!  More new Continue reading “BIT-10”

BIT 8 – December 09, 2006

Buddy's 1st guitar build

Well, sorry for the delay.  To say I’ve been busy lately would not cover it, plus our computer decided it wanted to crash, so that didn’t help any!  The good news is I’ve got plenty to fill you in on!

Also, we moved to Alto Boquete, Panama, but let me back up a little and fill you in…

My guitar was still in progress before our move… I got a little creative, and Continue reading “BIT-8”

BIT-7

BIT 7 – August. 19, 2006

Howdy all,

It’s been quite busy since I wrote last time.  I’ve been helping my dad replace the roof on the house, fixing broken water pipes, and playing some gigs.

I also restarted a long delayed pet project of mine… to build my first guitar!!!  It has been a real blessing to be in Central America where there are many types of exotic hard woods available.  I’ve also Continue reading “BIT-7”

My trip to the states was great and while there I got to play at Continue reading “BIT-6”

BIT-3

BIT 3 – October 8, 2005

Well, I thought I should give you all a “bit” of an update about the Guitar Festival!  After having gone to nearly all of the nightly concerts I was able to get a very broad and thorough sampling of many of the styles represented.  From various Classical and Baroque pieces to some Flamenco to Brazilian styles to some fantastic Tangos and Ragtime tunes.  Although every guitarist there Continue reading “BIT-3”

BIT 2 – August 24, 2005

Hi Everybody, I hope you all are doing well!

I’ve decided to put my CD project on hold for the time being, because I feel that it’s not quite in God’s perfect timing right now.  I’ve decided instead to put my energies toward writing new material for a new CD.  I’ll keep you posted as that develops!

In other news, I’ve been invited to play in the XII Festival Internacional de Guitarra, (12th International Guitar Festival), at the Continue reading “BIT-2”
