Nice Art in Boone, NC Sandwich Shop

**AlanN** · Jun-15-2010, 7:24am

Ate in a local joint yesterday after ASU Orientation. I go to hit the head, and right above me is a large framed pencil drawing of an F-5 in action. I read the caption and it's David Grisman's hands! (and durn sure looked like them). I then look around the deli and see all sorts of similar drawings, by the same artist - Doc, Dan Crary, Jack Lawrence, others. The series was titled Hands of Music. I may become the owner of that Grisman piece, it was well done.

What's the artist's name? I'd like to see if they have any pieces online.

I think that same set hangs on the walls at the Lucky Otter in Asheville.
Looks like charcoal sketches?

What shop was this in Boone? I'll be up there for a week in August and am always looking for good local eating places.
Thanks.

Nice art. I notice that Emmylou Harris has two capos on her guitar. Wonder why?

The eatery was called Our Daily Bread on King St. Good sandwiches.

I can think of a couple of reasons: one, for a quick change to the next song in the set list; two, if you cover all but the bass E string with your (Shubb style) capo positioned 2 frets above another capo (the lower capo is across all 6 strings) you have a "dropped D" tuning in a different key. It looks like both capos in the print go across all the strings, though, so I'd stick with the first guess for this particular situation.

Rowan playing his H-5 Mandola, before it got off the train.....

Yeah, I saw that, Evan. Resembled the shot of Pete on the cover of the Muleskinner LP.

I've got two of them. The Doc Watson and the Peter Rowan hanging in Office/Music room. The one I really want is the picture of the mandolin neck from the player's perspective... and the Tony Rice... and the Emmylou Harris......
