   About HOWARD FISHMAN

"I don't know a goddamn thing about a guitar. It's a 10-string instrument -- a 12-string instrument. You strum it and you tune it. After you tune it you start to play. It's not an easy instrument to play - it's easy enough - but you strum it. You just make sure you cut your nails right. You strum it with your fingers. It's like a mandolin and you cross your leg over and you strum it with your fingers. You tune it -- you tune it yourself. A-E-I-O-U, that's the way you tune it, A-E-I-O-U. and then you play it. Have you got a guitar? Don't you strum it? It's tell that you strum. V-i-o-l-i-n, violin. They have steel strings. You know Elvis Presley? He's dead. He was playin' it and they went and shot him. I can't tell you much about Elvis Presley. And his guitar? Well, I haven't got it. Who has got it, I don't know." - WILLIAM "FERGIE" FERGUSON from duplexplant.com

Strum the strings gently at first
A blind trust between steel and skin
Harmonic vibrations
Echos of chords linger in the air
That zen when in the groove
The guitarist's nirvana.

Jakob Dylan Still Not Convinced Father A Better Songwriter

(From theonion.com)
LOS ANGELES—Although his father, Bob Dylan, is widely considered to be the voice of a generation, Jakob Dylan, lead singer of folk-rock band the Wallflowers, said Monday he remains unconvinced that his father is the family's most talented songwriter. "I definitely think the verdict is still out," said Dylan, adding that time will be the ultimate judge of whether he or the elder Dylan will turn out to be more influential. "Sure, by the time Dad was 21, he had already written 'Blowin' in the Wind,' but let's not forget I'm only 38. I'm still maturing as an artist, and I have a whole notebook of ideas." Dylan added that he may have caused a greater stir in the music world than his father ever did when he was mercilessly booed for performing an acoustic version of "One Headlight" at Pennsylvania's Fayette County Fair in 2005.

Anyhoo, I am hoping to get to your show at the Rodeo Bar this month.. I haven't seen your current HF incarnation so I am looking forward to it!
All the best to you and a healthy and prosperous 2008!

Howdy.

For all the mediocre covers that made it onto the I'm Not There Soundtrack, it's a shame that they (THEY) didn't have the presence of mine to use any of your basement tapes stuff. They could've ended that movie with Santa Fe and it would have made my day.

Hope you're well.
