Did You Know That . . . . . ?

My wife and I attended the Annual Indian River County Hibiscus Festival in downtown Vero Beach. Every year, a full city block is cordorned-off for the various goin's on, that included - crafts, food, music, art work, bling, photography and you name it. Favorite events included 'Street Bands', one of which was really novel and good.

If you notice closely, Ben was playing a 'cigar box' guitar, although he alternated with 4 other guitars and a fiddle. He performed kind of a blue grass-country-gospel style sound for 2 hours straight - and that included, picking, singing, playing the bass drum with his right foot and a snare drum with his left and I don't know what he was using to play the symbol. Anyway he constantly drew a large crowd and that boot on top of the bass drum took on quite a few bucks.
