George wanted to take Lonzie to record with Albert Macon and Robert Thomas, and the daughter was hesitant to let Lonzie get in a car with George, or with anybody, but George reassured her. So George helped him in the car, and put the car in reverse, and drove directly into a nearby ditch. Lonzie turned and said, "Man, George, you may as well let me drive!" - Fred Fussell describes George Mitchell chauffeuring the blind Lonzie Thomas to a recording session, from notes to The George Mitchell Collection

Ladies, Gentlemen and Unkie Bud:

I have just registered for the 2012 Port Townsend Blues week. Booked and I'm bound to go. I hope that little guy Jed is on-the-ball this year.

This seems to be the best lineup of guitar instructors ever. Woo hoo!

Adjusting my meds,
Alex

I just counted on my fingers, this year is the 15 year anniversary of a casual comment that passed between a few folks at the '97 PT wrap, "hey, what's your email address? Let's keep in touch!" PT '97 was a notoriously excellent learning- and partying year, I for one will never forget it.

That foolhardy impulse to stay in touch was the genesis of what eventually evolved into WC.com, via a very circuitous route.

I will once again be boycotting Port Townsend
This year.
My loathings are simple: stupidity, oppression, crime, cruelty, soft music.

Aw.

I'm roadtripping it this year, preparing the Hudson Super 6 as we speak.

I remember it well and with great fondness. It was my third year at PTCBW, and by then, I had begun to grasp the rudiments. Jerry Ricks took us places I have never been since. Thanks for the flashback!

Hi all,
Just a reminder for those who will be attending, bring a portable recording device of some type.  You might possibly want a down vest (really!) for the cool evenings if they show, or wet weather gear of some type.  Wherever you're from in the lower forty-eight states or eastern Canada, weather is likely to seem really mild, and may verge on coolness at times.  I'm looking forward to reuniting with a bunch of you and meeting others of you for the first time.
All best,
Johnm

Here's my recording device. After playback of a windy field test outing I did some research and scored a fab Don King wig for my Zoom, just in case we're picking outside, which is fairly likely.
