The screen name question comes up fairly often, since it has nothing to do with pens or pen making. I'll try not to bore you with the background.
I have been playing guitar, using the word playing in the loosest form possible, for over 40 years. I started playing folk music in the early 60s, then moved to rock 'n roll when the Beatles hit big. When I first heard the Animals and the Rolling Stones, I became enthralled by blues, particularly Delta blues. I played with several small time bands in the 60s and have sat in with a few name players over the past 40 years. My love for both listening and playing the blues has never wavered. The DC part comes from the fact that I was not born in a state, but in the District of Columbia.
For the record, it's nice to have friends offer kind words about me, but remember that I had a weekend to bribe them! [8D]
