I was tagged by a great Flickr bud, Beckaroonie. That means, (a) I have to post a selfie and (b) tell ten things about myself. I don't know who has been tagged. So consider yourself on the honor system: if you've never been tagged, put yourself in this image answer 10 on your next post. If you've been tagged, you could still comment.
1.This image was actually taken by my daughter at my her wedding rehearsal party in Charleston, SC in July, 2007. She informed me that seersucker is de rigueur for “gentlemen” in the summer evenings in Charleston.
2.I have performed for money on at least: guitar, fiddle, anglo concertina, hammer dulcimer, melodeon, “penny whistle”, alto recorder, harmonica, bodhran, bones, lap dulcimer, mandolin and mountain-style banjo. I’ve played in rock bands, jazz bands, Irish sessions, 18th C. reenactments and church.
3.I was in a PBS series called Fret and Fiddle with a band called Hobson’s Choice. I’ve performed at the Spoleto Festival in Charleston, and a Fret and Fiddle Special was about the show.
4.I have a daughter, son-in-law and two grands in Texas. My daughter would rather I didn’t post the grands on Flickr. Oh how I wish you could see them.
5.Once, while working for the Drug and Alcohol office of the USAF, I tracked a dangerous heroin dealer for a day around a city, at personal risk to my life.
6.I’ve had three dads. My father was killed by organized criminals when I was 6 months old because he wouldn't sell his juke-box business to them.
7.I’ve traced my direct male ancestors to Baden, Germany 1540! One of my ancestors was in the 13th Virginia Legislature.
8.My mother played resnophonic steel body mandolin on the radio in a Carter-family style duo.
9.I have another daughter who would be 39 in December. She only lived two days and died on December 21st.
10.I’m a published (junior) author of an article in Psychology Review about multi-modal behavior therapy
