What a haul!!!
Habitat for Humanity is organizing a Memorial Day shindig in Pittsboro, NC... and I've agreed to play a set of cigar box guitar music...
And teach a workshop on building cigar box guitars.
But, whoops... I'm pretty much out of cigar boxes.
So Rebekah and I headed off today and found our way to K&S Tobacco on NC-55 in Cary, NC and lo and behold, they had a bunch of cigar boxes.
I picked out the 17 in the picture above... total price $10. Wow!
While there, we stopped at the nearby Home Depot and picked up some dowels to use for the necks. Now I'm all set for the workshop.

You're a musical genius, Doctor Oakroot. Or, like your Dad once told me, "I don't consider myself a genius. I'm just good at what I do." You're very good at producing blues and very good at inviting other performers to get into the genre cheaply by teaching them to make their own finely-crafted, great-sounding cigar box instruments.
