    Anyone hear play/listen to Classical/Flamenco guitar music? Recommend me a song(s)

    Now, I understand a lot of travelers/hobos/tramps/what-have-you favor the punk/folk-punk/metal/bluegrass/jam band genres ---and I like/play a majority of those styles too. However, lately I've been getting more interested in classical guitar music (and some flamenco as well). Sure, I love...

I go digging through all his stuff and checking out his projects.. he was hacking cigar box guitars and portable amps, etc. The amp he made (out of my speakers!) was just the guts of a 9v computer speaker with its 1/8th jack replaced with a...

    One Montreal gal, One Icelandic dude and 2 guitars heading South-ish

    Heya! My name's Kate. I'm a Montrealer living in a kick@$$ co-op and working at an awesome show cafe co-op but I just can't say no to travel, it's in my blood.

    Guitar on the road

    I'm curious if you traveling guitar players bother trying to attach your gig bag to your pack or if you just carry it. Thanks!

    beer and sleeping pills makes me think I can play guitar

    It's 9:22 am. Just took a sleeping pill and about to finish my last beer. That means its time to get out the guitar. I play awesome on beer and pills. At least to me it sounds awesome. I'm also pretty sure it enables me to speak other languages.

    Hardcase Guitar Travel!

    Alright, so I think this may have been posted before, but the thread's been lost since, and I'm sure my case isn't the same. I want to see if I can take my Hardcase with my traveling, but of coarse it's big, bulky, and I don't want to lug around this behemoth in my hands all day. I wanted to...
