Keavin,
 
You know that you can actually cut off the excess string?
 
They sell diagonal cutters at Home Depot.  Even better, go to the electrical section and get the bypass loppers that electricians use.
 
Just hasslin' ya!

Here's a couple of pics from a block party I played in July with a bunch of friends doing Tom Petty covers.

  We only ot to do one set, then it started raining.

Mike, I'm confused.  If that's you, who's this guy?

Well...
The beard and hair is seasonal - winter, the white hat is a stage perspiration victim and mostly retired, and the fog machine belonged to the club 602 North (now sadly defunct after I moved within half a mile of it). But both pics are me.

Here is an alembic in the capable hands of a seasoned blues musician. I took this photo at the Salmon Arm Roots & Blues Festival, Canada this weekend.

 
I have to say I was hoping to see at least one Alembic  and I genuinely was drawn to this because as I walked past earlier i thought I heard the call of an alembic bass.
Later when I went back to the stage I caught this rare sighting. I'm not sure of the model but is it a persuader?
It does have the cone shaped head.
It was the only alembic i saw there amongst the prevalence of Fender basses.
The sound of Alembic is medicine for the soul!

Very nice pic jazzy. Obviously a performer with impeccable taste.

We were headlining the Salmon Roots & Blues festival last Saturday Night but didnt get any photo's of that.  
We also played at the volunteers party on Sunday night when we played the closing set of the festival.
 
I  had a fantastic time, I also met some really nice people in Canada. Thats now down on my holiday destination map as a place to visit and spend more time. ( Only in the summer when it's hot though).
