On the side I have been jammin with a local guy who plays bluegrass and blues and I must say that has been quite cool and has really helped me get a feel for other styles... I don't really think I will continue to just play rhythm but it has been good for me to learn how to play with a group.... I am not sure what avenue I am going to take with my music and I don't want to limit myself to one style as I had before but I would definately say that I am really enjoying the blues.



That's really cool- socially conscious and sounds pretty sweet as well. The only danger I would warn of is that once you play the blues, it will always come through your music. Not that it's a bad thing- my playing is very blues influenced.
