Please allow me a little self indulgence here.  (Who am I kidding– podcasting is a self-indulgent activity).  Last week I met with my friend Ron Belanger at theGood Vibes Coffee House to pick up my new Ron Belanger handmade guitar.  Here is a recording of my first set of my own songs with my new guitar.  Enjoy.

For the past several month, Bryan Murdaugh has been presenting a monthly online virtual house concert on Ustream.tv. This month’s concert is Tomorrow, November 19, 2008 at 8pm EST. You can find it at http://www.ustream.tv/murdaugh. I will be doing an opening set for Bryan beginning at a little after 7:35pm EST at http://www.ustream.tv/channel/ductapeguy-live.

Edit: You can view the concert here now. I had a couple of technical difficulties with my camera but I enjoyed being in the supporting spot for my friend Bryan, and he truly rawked the ustream

I got a new Ron Belanger guitar last night. I thought I would play it for a couple of hours and invited my online friends to join me on ustream.

I remembered to press record about 1/2 way through my set.

Here’s what I captured.
