This man has made me want to learn how to play banjo more than anything in the world. I found a bunch of his live performances on youtube. It seems heās more of a period musician, playing songs from the minstrel era of banjo music, and often he explains the history behind the songs. Truly, the amount of talent is insane and every song hits u right in the heart. (Recommending music is such an interesting thing, words are hard to describe it) Highly recommend listening to the songs he played at The Ark! āNo More the Moon Shines on Lorenaā makes me cry everytime I hear it. I linked Old Dog Blues:
He can Play that Damn Guitar like an eloquent public speaker. He plays like heās your grandpa telling you the most gripping and fascinating story, pausing to emphasize important details he wants you to remember and he always keeps you wanting to hear more.
Iād recommend The Legend of Blind Joe Death album or Days Have Gone By Vol. 6.
anyone else enjoy old blues like robert johnson, blind lemon jefferson, leadbelly, charley patton etc or is it just me ??? simple yet sad lyrics, just a dude busking thru the terrible Deep South during the Jim Crow Era trying to make a name for themselfā¦like delta blues style guitar always captivated me i wonder if it could be incorporated into modern musicā¦i hope i can try to one day
thatās my motto Colter Wall - Cowpoke / Caroline Dee White - Way Down Early James - Blue Pill Blues Patsy Cline - Walkin After Midnight

You can access the archive from Plex and itās a hUge range of films, all for free! Itās been a lifesaver since leaving college and losing access to Kanopy. Tons of revolutionary films and documentaries, itās like netflix for cool people! Jk i kid, i kid⦠š. A lot of independent films that are no longer being shown are up there too!! Great stuff all around.
besides free books (physical, digital, audio) the amount of stuff u have access to is wild. iām talking board games, sewing machines, language classes, coding lessons, cds and dvds (that you can rip and copy and kEEP - none of the librarians are gonna tell you shit for that), maker spaces, 3D printers, community events, ballet classes, movie nights, car repair lessons, resume help, free national park tickets, bat tours during october! Itās great! And for free?!?? in thIS economy? Literally why pay for a coworking space when the library is Right there, with free wifi and quiet rooms all to yourself. And if there are things you donāt see offered but want to? Ask! Or even better, offer!! Start your own thing, get to know your community members. Utilize your third spaces, theyāre great!!
