Nice!

Redbone Double Page Ad

Man, I love guitars. Especially nice guitars! You know the kind I'm talking about - the sweet and amazingly light acoustic, hand crafted detail, perfect sound, the kind you're almost afraid to even pick up and strum lest you might drop it and then hell - there goes a mortgage payment!

Although the store might feel a bit intimidatingly swanky at first (it's wicked nice inside) it won't be long until you're feeling right at home bringing back memories of Pat Mcgee's Surf Shop in Port Aransas circa 1979. That's right, guitar gremmies included! Plus, there's a bunch of really affordable guitars and swag along with some of the best free technical and buying advice from Redbone's genuinely friendly and helpful pros.

Just meeting a few of the awesome instructors, folks whom you'll probably recognize as seeing on stages all across San Antonio, Texas and beyond - the chill and welcoming vibe at Redbone makes me want to take some lessons just so I can hang out and listen to real musicians and beginners alike express themselves both verbally and through noodleing on some of the nicest guitars you'll ever hold in your hands with having to sign a waiver!

If you love guitars you'll really dig Redbones Guitar Boutique - just a block north of the fountain in Olmos Park at 4343 McCullough in beautiful San Antonio, Texas.

Rock on Redbone!

Wow! 3000+ Subscribers! Thank You!



I've been kind of slacking on the HMK Mystery Stream Posts the last few months - down from one every 7-10 days to one a month! But looking at these stats and knowing that there are 3,000+ subscribers (Thank You!) drooling as they wait for the next mysterious episode (I kid, I joke, I exaggerate - I know!) really puts a fire under my butt to get back into the swing of at least 2 episodes a month!

As usual for each episode, quality over quantity + available time eventually always rules the day, hence Irregular Frequency, it's frequentation is anything but regular, so no promises other than I'll do the best I can!

Thanks again for listening and especially to everyone that's shown their appreciation over the past 3 years via PayPal and bought the staff here at the HMK Mystery Stream Studios coffee and muffins to help keep things rolling!

There are still about a half dozen HMK Mystery Stream Pledge Drive Shirts from last summer available in case you missed out: HMK Mystery Stream Pledge Drive Shirts

Stay Tuned Y'all - some great things are coming soon - thanks again!

Peace!

Dig It!

You've got to dig it to dig it, you dig?


I found this awesome list of advice from Thelonius Monk to saxophonist Steve Lacy from back in 1960 over here.



The stamp image is from Thelonius Monk's Riverside Records era (1954–1961) - still looking for info on the artist.
