We turned our kids onto the "Prince of Polyester" when they were young. We are taking our son to this show as a 16th birthday present and I think he might actually be more excited than us!

I get to see Mr. Dave this Monday Night in a tiny little restaurant in Exeter, CA...Great food and great music. I hope he plays this song, but sings it like Jimmy Stuart (bonus track)

G'day! Greetings to you all from wonderful Western Australia. Lindley is a very talented musician. For many years, I've been chasing a number of his called something like "Going to Columbus" (?). Anyone got any clues?

Pat MacDonald of Timbuk 3 wrote "National Holiday" and Timbuk 3 recorded it on "Edge of Alliance" in 1990. Dave recorded it on "Twango Bango II" in 2001 and credited Pat in the liner notes. One thing you can say about Dave (besides being a wonderful string player and singer and and and) is that he has great taste in music. In November, he did songs by Steve Earle, Danny O'Keefe, Warren Zevon, etc. He didn't write "National Holiday", but I wouldn't have heard it if Dave hadn't played it.

I this song he is playing a Bouzouki he had custom made with extra frets. He also has a custom made Oud it's solid bodied and he carries it with him the last two times I saw him.

Mr Dave hates bootleggers... Im sure this is an unauthorized video clip.
But we can repent... send Mr.Dave 5 bucks for viewing this video... go to his website for the address...

What Mr. Dave wants five bucks for is if you copy one of his CD's. These clips are just really good ads for him. I e-mailed him twice telling him I was posting these, never got a response.
