Just now , by total accident, by pressing A pedal and F lever, the lowest 8 string tones would fit into any Armenian band at a picnic or other function. Bring on the shish kebab, I got my PSG! Yeehaw!

One band I was with (doggone it, I miss that bunch) was working up a pretty kicking fiddle, steel, piano and Tele transcription of Khatchaturyan's Sabre Dance.

After I bought a Stetson hat, retro Western shirt, and Nocona boots, my wife rolled her eyes and said "I'm married to an Armenian cowboy". I mentioned to her that lately I also enjoy driving fast and turning left a lot, but reminded her that our wedding vows mentioned "for better or for worse." I loved living in New Mexico and am getting tired of this New England weather - still wearing my ski cap - WTF!!

This might be the single greatest post I've ever read in my life. I thought I was the only Armenian pedal steel player in the world! Cannot wait to try that lick! Your bring the shish, I'll bring the dolma.
