  5. How to: making personal iTunes collections from free music

    Like to create a great collection of MP3 music that you could take with you on your iPhone, iPod or other iTunes friendly device?

    There's a lot of great music offered for free on the web in MP3 form, but the problem is most of it isn't organized or you have to navigate to a particular web site to listen to it. Examples: the MP3 of the Day from Acoustic Oasis, random MP3s posted by the Song-A-Week Social Group, and our own MP3 page.

  9. It's not all Bluegrass out there

    Kirk plays a Bitterroot (hard!)
    Catch his Band, Larry and His Flask, on YouTube.
