I've found myself buried in spam getting back to people who email me at my old address. The address is still getting massive amounts of spam and it is getting harder and harder to find the actual messages. Today I got smart and tried working in reverse - looking at the oldest messages first. So some of you might find a sudden reply to an ancient (3, or 4 months old) inquiry waiting at your email box.
I know the old address is still on my website and hope to get it updated soon.
So if you are looking for Clawhammer advice please write me at

I don't know how one makes a live email link yet - sorry
I'm hoping to get the complete RSB text onto my blog on this site in the near future but I'm not sure what it would take to get the 40 tune tabs from the book here. I could post them in a "dead" format, but the beauty of Tabledit tabs is that your computer can play them for you and at any speed you like, so you can even play along.
If you want any of the newer chapters check my blog here:

I hope to add the chapters I've been emailing in a few days. With luck they will appear here pretty soon. Check my blog next week.
One question I can answer for several people right now.
Tonight I suddenly recalled that I read about the occasional up-stroke in clawhammer in Pete Seegers book. But that might well be a false memory. I don't actually know any other users of the technique except on the internet (and possible people who've read my posts on the subject over the last several years).
