Hi Doug,
Nice job! I especially like the use of open strings with hammer-ons, pull-offs. Sounds like you have some Dobro techniques that you've added to the lap steel. Sounding great as always.

Beautiful, Doug. Perfect song for a gray day with another blizzard just starting around here. How's that finger doing? Glad to see a new video and always appreciate being able to watch your hands closely.

EXCELLENT!! as always...
You know Doug, there's probably a small army of old bald men out there, pacing in circles, wondering why you won't do 8-string transcriptions!?! Muttering
