I'll be risking both life and limb by flexing the razor sharp spring steel teeth of the hand tool of doom bewixt my knees to proudly produce a prodigious pallet of pleasing panache at the 2006 Moisture Festival (@ Hales Brewery 4301 Leary Way NW Seattle, WA 98107-4538 US). I'm a late addition to the festivities, so you may not see my name in any of the press, but rest assured I'll be there sawing away at popular melodies on my musical saw as only a hack can. Look for me during the MATINEE show at 3PM on Sunday April 9th and again during that evening's MARATHON performance at 7:30PM
With my homemade 'Nobro' resophonic guitar I'll be spreading the gospel of garage sales, with twisted tales, new and used bottleneck slide blues, hokum nonsense songs and musical saw melodies on the razor sharp hand tool of Doom!

I'm very pleased to announce that I've been invited to perform at the Oregon Country Fair. Look for me on Friday at the Youth Stage as I recount tall and twisted tales in story and song with my homemade garage sale junk guitar.
But wait! There's more...
With my trusty rusty saw blade, Trusty Rusty, always at the ready to bow beautiful melodies, be at this momentous and hickstorically significant event on this day, the day I, Daredevil Reggie SawMan Miles, stray from the path of righteousness and turn to the dark side! No longer will I simply risk MY life and limb by flexing the razor sharp spring steel teeth of the hand tool of doom betwixt my knees to proudly produce a prodigious pallet of pleasing panache for your entertainment. NO! For the first time ever I will attempt to double the size of my audience at this event by systematically sawing my audience members in half! I can't imagine it's going to be easy to get volunteers for this feat of daring do but even Houdini had to start somewhere. Right? If I run out of bandaids and Mercurochrome this could get ugly really quick. Well, if all else fails I can always go back to simply making beautiful melodies with it. I hope to saw ya all there.
I'll be the opening act on the second day of this three day event. Saturday, August 5th at 11AM @ The Mount Baker Blues Festival New & Used 'Nobro' Bottleneck Slide Blues.
