Now and tomorrow. Here and gone. The fragile state of exist. And so far I suck at playing Robert Johnson, so doodling.

Thank you so very much Jim! The next big one is expected to remove parts of California coastline, perhaps whole cities like San Francisco and LA! My hope, being in between the two, Monterey will make it, perhaps becoming an island ha! Hundreds of very small earthquakes daily here, normal! Just a matter of time, shaky ground indeed. Motivation to figure out Robert Johnson sooner than later ha!

Excellent playing Richard. Standin' on shaky ground!

Those were two areas hit hard, I remember the coverage and photos. That must of been necessary but  horrific work RTZ! My son was at CandleStick that day  with his grandpa, World Series SF vs Athletics. Scary few hours! Thanks for sharing your story and comments!

I got to go to the City 2 days after the 89 quake to work saddest site pancaked highway and the section of the Bay bridge down never forget it. Real nice play Richard

Some aftershocks 112 years latter, but I’m only an hour and a half from the  epicenter. Nice play on words Erasmo, thank you very much!

Thank you AGP, a natural veggie diet in the doggy bowl mellows out the gravy train with bacon grease I’ve been feeding it! Learning to let my fingers do the walking with a side of pasta ha! Thank you Sir!

You know A.D, you laid down some excellent advice! Don’t think melody being the best. Part of the problem is I have the lyric and chord sheet, but seems he’s playing a whole other chord. I’ve been watching Eric Clapton’s cover, it helps, but Eric electricifies it up. Your chopping wood is a good  analogy, solving the Robert Johnson mystery one cadang at a time. Thank you Sir!

Some nice mellow tones emanating from the Doggy Bowl Richard, and very cool Noodlin' :-)

Dont mind me saying 1 you do a greatjob but when you like to go R Johnson, try plukk in a rhytmic way ,stamp the foot down to help you allong and Dont think Melody , but cutting up log, or rolling timber to the river, or chopping wood , or picking  the four in a cadanse thu railroad ó cadang ,cadang!  cally man strikes again ! ( believe this time he is sitting down ) greeeeettsszz on ye ! A.D.
