A GREGG MINER MUSICAL CHRONOLOGY:

  • Early life: Grew up on the Monkees, thinking they were a real group.
  • Played rock guitar throughout High School -- crudely, and too loud.
  • Sang in Madrigals and Barbershop Quartet ("blends well", said teacher).
  • Later studied classical guitar ("doesn't practice"), then jazz guitar ("unable to play fast").
  • Fooled around with lutes, mandolins, and whatnot, against teacher's recommendations.
  • Began acquiring stringed instruments of every size and description.
  • Composed and recorded original instrumental music long before it became fashionable.
  • Took up the pedal harp and freelanced for awhile, including stint as L.A.'s first street harpist.
  • Played guitar in comedy Oldies band, The Pretensions -- until the members became too pathetically old themselves.
  • 1991 - 1995: Completed life's work of playing every instrument in the collection (~100 at the time).
  • 1996-2000: Promoting "A Christmas Collection." Figuring out how to play some of these instruments live. Started www.minermusic.com.
  • 2002: Created a whole new web site devoted to the harp guitars and other instruments of turn-of-the-century builder Chris Knutsen.
  • 2003 and onward: Continue research, writing and exploration into all sorts of wonderful, forgotten instruments....
  • 2004: Created Harpguitars.net, the largest, most complete Internet resource on a single musical topic that I am aware of.
  • 2006: Created Harp Guitar Music, a record label and online store devoted exclusively to the harp guitar!
  • The future: Harp Guitars WILL take over the world!

Hi Gregg,
Just stopping by for a hello and a quick listen.
Woodchoppers Ball is coming up this coming Saturday and I've been putting a lot of my concentration into getting all of that together. Right now sending you this comment could be considered to be goofing off.
Be well,
Brian
