Delightful. For a bar or two of Mozart, stop by my site, and listen to "Momma Don't Allow".

I figured most folks who are really into jug band music know that there are no rules, you can do whatever the hell you want, just like the early masters of the craft did.

what is that thing your blowing into, not the harmonica, but the other thing

Fritz used the glove and tape because he was fretting a piano wire on his washtup bass. Not necessary if you pull the stick and use a softer elastic type of clothesline.
Even then, it can cause blisters so tape may still be useful.

Hay... if you wanna' play that washtub bass right... you gotta' use a glove on your "stick" hand with some tape and heavy cushoning wrapped around two fingers each. Use that to grip and stop the string like you were fretting. Just look up Fritz Richmond of the Jim Kweskin Jug Band and see for yourself.
