So far, so cool. Really like what you've played so far - loved the Bela Fleck!
Great to have something different, and lively but not jarring, on a Saturday morning. Congrats.

Just caught the last 15 minutes of your show - was so disappointed that it didn't go on after 8! LOVED that Bela Fleck piece and just ordered it for my banjo playing son. Thanks!

Thanks to you Chris and wxxi for Cadenza. I really enjoy the newer music you're playing here. I only wish it could be two hours in the evening replacing of the New Age stuff.
