Great job man. I got to see him a couple of times in my misspent youth. First time he opened for Elizabeth Cotten at  settlement house in South Phila. I learned that he played on a corner near Graduate Hospitaland went there a couple of times before I got to see him again.

Very well done, Cub. It took a lot of hard work and love of the music to get to that point, not to mention talent.
