White Christmas

Post by Dale Rottacker »

Too soon? I've seen some with trees up and decorated already.
So even though I really haven't been feeling "it" and this didn't turn out quite like I'd planned, let me still wish you all an early Merry White Christmas.

Really nice, Dale. Always like to hear what you come up with in your lab. The comments you mention are on the other post you made for this video. Maybe the admins can combine the two posts.
Thanks for sharing.

Dale, splendid version with that sweet swinging edge on the C6. Loved it.

Thank you my friend ... Just wish I'd started on C6th when my fingers were more nimble and the message from brain to fingers moved a bit quicker.

Dale I'm in total agreement with that. The hands and fingers are not what they were. Next month I get the thumb surgery to relieve arthritis in my right hand. I will miss playing for a couple months.
I believe your hands are doing a fine job on both necks. I enjoy your music.

Keep me posted on your thumb ... something I may eventually need myself, as I've been bone on bone on both thumbs for 10 years or so. A gal from Church had her's done, which was rather extensive beyond the typical surgery and she's really happy with the results. Pain free and almost back to full strength in less then 3 months.

Dale that's what the surgeon tells me if I follow the healing properly. No lifting for a term and therapy. I trust the process and have reviewed a considerable amount of patients who reported good results. I will let you know how it goes. My surgeon also plays guitar.

I've talked to a few different Dr's here in town, and when they hear "musician" seems like a different list of surgeons comes up.
