How to Play Slide Guitar in Standard/Dropped-D DVD by Kirk Lorange
If you really want to spice up your playing, slip a slide over your pinkie and add it to your musical vocabulary. There's no need to re-tune your guitar to an open tuning, just stay in standard or lower that bass string down to D. Kirk shows you how in this 70 minute DVD, talking and playing you through the basics, vibrato, muting, playing single note lines, finding all the chord flavors (they're all there!) and mixing it all into one very neat hybrid style of playing guitar.

ABC Radio-Blues Show
This friday, 8th July, I will be playing some live to air blues for the ABC,
broadcast across Australia.
Its at 9.30 am (I can't work out if thats real early or real late!) in the morning, and I'll have my good friend Billy "Blackdog" Cox along side me on bass and blues-harp.
I've never played live to air before, so anything could happen!
I'd rather a bottle in front of me than a frontal lobotomy.

Thanks guys,
It should be heaps o fun.
However, I think I have to give an interview as well, Ahh! (oh no!).
It only goes for 15 minutes, so theres not a lot of time to make an ass of myself.
Or maybe there is?
Oh well, what a shame, never mind, lol.

Sorry to say I missed it LightninBoy ... my son came for a visit and threw my whole schedule out. Did you tape it? Did it go OK?

Well, it was a real blast. The DJ made it easy, he was a true pro.
I can't believe that I didn't make a fool of myself in the interview!
(or did I?)
I thought I would, lol.
The music was ok too, the guys at the radio station really dug it.
It all happened so quick, didn't get a chance to warm up, just bang, ok boys, play!
We played "Rollin and Tumblin", and "I cant be satisfied".
We've been invited back in a fortnight, to do it all again.
Its a great help in promoting our new duo.
Oh, and I got it wrong, it wasn't ABC radio national, it was ABC regional for the Widebay/Burnett region. (I was led to believe it was national).
So Kirk, you may not have picked up the signal from Tambo anyway.
And Randy_mc, there was no video clip, I'm not even sure if it was recorded. But I'll find out.
Thanks for your support guys, it did help.
In september Billy and I are opening the "Bucca" blues festival, here in Queensland.
That should also be great fun.

This friday (29th) at 9.30 am, (ahrrrg), Billy and I are playing live to air on the ABC regional Wide-Bay/Burnett again.
If any one is in the vicinity, tune in.
