Welcome Jipes! You have great taste in music.

On a side note, my grandfather's last name was Pouliot, and his family emigrated from France, through Canada, to the US a loooong time ago. He never lost his very thick French accent. Unfortunately, his attempts to teach me the language were in vain.

Glad to have you here!:D

It is great that you found the site, your playing and blues lessons have been an inspiration to me, and helped my blues playing as well.

Welcome to TheFret, Jipes! I can see from your musical tastes and equipment that you'll fit right in around here! :dude:

I'm quite fond of Alsatian Gewurztraminer. I can give you the mailing address to send a case to. This is a well established custom for new members here at TheFret--it's called "send wine to Duh Voodoo Man". Ignore those who tell you differently! You can trust me on this--honest! Would I lie? ;) :D

Of course that would be a pleasure Dear Voodooman, I must say that you should rather try the Kaeferkopff
