Back when I was first learning how to use a computer I stumbled upon a blog called the Old Blue Bus. The driver, bud by the name of Ed, had posted a little something about Link Wray after Wray had taken his final bow. I left a brief comment signed with a spur of the moment name which soon became my alter ego, my avatar - Mr. Beer N. Hockey.
Ed is a little older than me so it was natural to relate to the man as if he were an older brother with an even cooler record collection than the one I have taking up all my house's valuable shelf space. As a result of Ed's influence I now turn up the radio whenever I hear a little bluegrass when I am out swerving around in my old car.
Thanks Ed. I mean it, man.
Guess there will come a day the Dope City Free Press will come to an end too. Everything is temporary after all. That day is not in sight yet, motherfuckers.
I, for one, am relieved. And a bluegrass nut, too. Hooray, Ed!
