The video I am posting today is from a public performance on the main stage of the event, “Farm Expo”, from the year 2003, where I fervently, proudly, respectfully, loudly, and boldly presented the “Star Spangled Banner” with what I call the “Jimi Candrix” twist. Each time I publicly perform this tune, I play it as such so that all present can hear it and feel it as “loud and clear” as I can make it possible. I am sharing this video on this blog, today, to honor and with respect for ALL who have served, and for ALL who have died in order that we are allowed the freedoms we have in this country.

Photos and Story of an ORIGINAL Herschel Brown canjoe

Posted on April 15, 2011 by CanJoe*John

The first major artist to receive an authentic CanJoe Company one-stringed canjo instrument was personally requested. Bill Monroe, the “father of bluegrass” music was the headliner performing on September 7, 1995 at the Paramount Theater, Bristol, TN, along with several other major bluegrass artists in that night’s line up and I met and introduced myself to him that evening back stage. Immediately upon his introduction to my own original Herschel Brown canjoe instrument, he requested one for himself. I had made and brought several of my hand made canjoe instruments with me to that event and being near his birthday, I gave a ‘Mountain Dew’ canjoe instrument to Mr. Monroe that night. He LOVED it!!!!! At the closing number, “Will the Circle Be Unbroken”, of that evening’s performance, Mr. So precaution should be taken to avoid all these adverse effects and to avail the desired impacts. generic levitra online http://respitecaresa.org/about-respite-care/najim-w-capation/ There are a number of different cialis tadalafil canada Kamagra medicines available online are cheaper than what you’d find elsewhere.

I Am Not “Joe”

Posted on April 13, 2011 by CanJoe*John

The CanJoe Company began operating as a Tennessee licensed business officially on December 19, 1994. For a couple of years prior to becoming officially licensed, the instruments were being made and sold as kind of a hobby and some parts used in producing them were being provided by Herschel Brown. Herschel also built a bench jig and sent it as a Christmas gift that year which helped in the making and for assembling the instruments more efficiently. That custom built jig is still in use today. During that same time, my wife, Sissy, was dying from metastatic kidney cancer and the Christmas of that year was her last one. Twenty five canjoe instruments were assembled just before that Christmas and during the brief times that Sissy could be left alone, I went out to buy her medications, pay bills and pick up items we needed and also during that time, I carried those canjoe instruments with me. I sold all 25 of them for $12 each between that December 19th and Christmas day of that year. The cash from those sales paid for Sissy’s last Christmas dinner and a gift, a red & white striped night gown she asked for. It was soon after beginning the business that I also began entertaining her with canjoe music, mostly Christmas tunes at first. As I played and entertained her, on one specific day, she commented on how “good” I was getting on playing the instrument. As I joked in response that I would “someday play the Grand Ole Opry” on it, she smiled, stuck up her thumb and said, “Go for it ‘CanJoe*John’!”… that’s the moment that the name was given and from that time on I have been known by that name. Over the last several years we, as a society, have witnessed a dramatic increase in childhood depression, teenage suicide and school gun shootings. online pharmacy tadalafil If you feel that it is really hard to get erection then start using Kamagra today. cheap super viagra samples of levitra Next comes the pure Catuba Bark extract. You can monitor your blood pressure by using a special medication known as ‘ 5mg cialis price‘. The ‘star’ placed between the word “CanJoe” and my birth given name, “John” was put in because Sissy said to me that for all I did in caring for her, I was her “star”, her “hero”. All together it also became my trademark signature… CanJoe*John… and always with the star in it. That signature has now been signed on EVERY canjoe I’ve ever made (except the first 25). Over the many years, the name “CanJoe*John” became my identity. The public, all my friends, my family, and the music and business industries recognize and use this name as my identity. The name is now also legally used to sign contracts, endorse checks for deposit into the CanJoe Company bank account and the personally signed autograph identifies (TRADEMARKS) the AUTHENTIC canjoe instruments. Unfortunately impostors have come along in now making inferior quality knock off instruments that only remotely resemble CanJoe Company products and have even gone so far as to impose the identity by calling themselves “Canjo-Somebody”; with one specific individual who even goes so far as to “sign” his products using his illegal, unethical impostor identity to make the public believe that they are buying an authentic established product. Whenever anybody calls me by the name “Joe”, my immediate response has been and will always be, “my name is NOT Joe, I am either, ‘John’, ‘CanJoe’, or (more properly) known as ‘CanJoe*John’… but I’m NOT JOE“.
