OK, OK! Is there anyone else out there playing and looping hurdy gurdy? I'd better start working on a secret hand shake and decoder ring. If all goes well, I'll be touring around the US this April with an act form California. If this happens, I'd love to be able to say hello to all of you far-flung American loopers. I'll let you know how this shapes up. And that will be the best way to trade music since even clearly labelled promotional CDs can get held up at the border! Thanks for the info, Rick. I like your stuff on the site!
