Don't Stop on the Bad One

Another Doc story comes to mind. We were talking about playing and Doc
told me, "If you play a wrong note, don't stop on it just keep going."
From that I have taken that a step further, "If you play a weird note
and just do it once it is a mistake. If you play it again, it will seem
like a variation."

Thanks Doc for opening up the music world to me. It has provided me with
lots of fun and I have tried to follow in your footsteps and turn on
others to Old Time music. Your influence will be felt for many years and is an integral part of Alaska's folk music tradition.
