About a year ago I picked it back up seriously and have made more progress in that time than I did in all the years before. Except for a few lessons when I was young, I am basically self-taught. I play in our praise band at my church where I am able to use music to glorify God. I know that this custom RainSong will fit nicely there. Although I'm not a professional musician, music is much more than just a hobby.
Obsession is probably a better word.
I've done some performing, but mostly I play for fun. When time allows, I get together with my brothers and sister in Colorado for some jamming. I want to thank Acoustic Guitar for encouraging me to keep playing, and for supporting all kinds of acoustic music. I play what I like to call 'Acoustic Cafe' Blues. I have been fortunate to have many great guitarists in the Twin Cities area to listen to and learn from such as Gabriela Sweet, Pat Donohue, and Phil Heywood.
