Now that March is half over, I am finally getting around to doing something for Blues Guitar News.  Sorry about all this,
but gigging on a solid schedule, and life on the road takes a toll on you.   When we get back home off the road, it is just
nice to rest your head on your own pillow.    We are changing the venue away from the strict monthly format, as from now
on this is a catch as a catch can venture.   Two of our all time favorite blues links, great folks that share the hog the way it
should be done are
Blues Blast and Blues Art Journal.   We couldn’t begin to keep up with these professional journalists,
as we are just a bunch of blues musicians just trying to network, and keep this blues thing floating, sharing it with as
many folks that will listen.  Check out the two links below, and we’ll be adding more as we go along to fill the page out.   
God bless y'all, and talk to you later Mike

We want to thank Blues Art Journal and Blues Blast magazines for
keeping us Arkansas blues pickers in the mix on their publications.   
They understand fully that Arkansas is the other blues state across the
mighty muddy river from Mississippi, and Highway 49 crosses the river
into Arkansas at Helena.   For more on Arkansas blues legends, click on
the Blues Legends above.  You’d be surprised on how many noted
blues legends are from Arkansas, or at least lived and gigged here for
decades.   The direct link to Arkansas Blues Legends is:

Hairy Larry’s Delta Boogie is the oldest and most extensive blues web
site known.   Don’t judge a book by looking at it’s cover, as once you
enter Larry’s Delta Boogie, you better pack a lunch as you could wonder
around for weeks and never see the same thing twice.   Hairy Larry is a
dedicated musician, promoter of blues in the delta, and known mostly by
deep underground blues networking folks.   Drop him a line, introduce
yourself, and become a blues friend to one of the hardest working blues
enthusiasts in the business.   Don't miss his Delta Boogie Radio either.
