Jug band music, anyone?

Spread the word: I'm looking for a couple of acoustic musicians interested in playing old-timey music and country blues on jug band/string band instruments.

I play guitar, harmonica, banjo, fiddle, mandolin, etc., but I can't play them all at the same time! If someone you know plays an acoustic instrument (portable and not requiring electricity) and is interested in roots/old-time/pre-WII/traditional/hokum/ragtime blues styles, urge them to get in touch with me at smokinbill@aol.com.

I'd like to start practicing in January and be ready to start playing gigs by summer.
