Official Luthiers Forum!

3 OLFers captured during the night in a shack down by the bayou. Loud snoring alerted the posse to their prescense. Also found, tortise shell in bags, and ivory bills from some kind of woodpecker. Those items were sent to the state crime lab for analysis.

I'm coming!!!!
I just have to take a picture. I'm kind of shy when it comes to the highlite.
But it's sometimes interesting to see what we all look like. Funny....we're all so funny at times.
Regards, Walter

Craig's bio is up too.

I submitted my stuff to King Lance yesterday. Sorry for being a derelict for so long!

Here is a pic of me from last year when I had my hair cut short. I've been away a lot this summer (doing the festival circut) so I haven't kept up ion what is happening. What is it you are looking for in the Bio?

   Sent mine to Lance tonight. I know it won`t be worth much, but can I collect the reward?

Check my oil too, if you don`t mind,,,

Regular stuff, VISA numbers, PIN, and a few blank checks on your account, signed of course.

Who, What, Why, When, Where, the usual, oh, and a smile. Sylvan did a great job on his.

P. S. Please keep the Bio less than two pages.... grin... or the King of the OLF may exercise his right to waving the red pen.

P. S. S. Reward? There is a reward?Dickey38576.8359027778

Ok, I too can be scratched from the list!

So where are these being posted (I'd love to get a look at them)

I sent mine to Lance.

These Luthier Bios' will only appear on the main page.
It's at the top, under, of all things, Luthier's Bios, short for biography, of course.

Yeah, well, the list was compiled from the first of seven pages in the Main Discussion Forum. Those are the most current posts, and yes, many are missing, this is kind of a poke in the side for many sitting on their laurels. I have added a few as they come up.

Nothing says you have to put up a bio, it's simply in a spirit of comradarie, and totally voluntary.

Soon as I can get a picture of myself that I can stand, I'll type a bio.

All right Bruce, I sent my Bio into Lance.
Now you can take me off the Most Wanted List.

Gary

Ok ok! Call off the dogs! I sent my pic and a brief bio to Lance today.
