Personally, I spend my time trying (trying and trying) to learn Blues, but surely appreciate your fine playing of blue-grass.   Greg:   Do you tongue-block as you play (which is what I'm trying hard to do)?   I'm enjoying tongue-blocking, but your notes are so very clean, I wonder the technique, so that I can continue to focus more directly.   Thanks, Leonard
