And Then There Were Eight...

I am so incredibly pleased to introduce you to HickoryWind.org's newest three authors!

Jim Pipkin has been an obsessive/compulsive commenter on our HickoryWind.org for what seems like forever now, and his off-beat sense of humor keeps us all in stitches! It's about dang time I woke up and invited him to write with us. And I'm so pleased he's agreed to! Jim is a singer/songwriter based outside of Phoenix, Arizona, and he's signed up for our folk and singer/songwriter beat. Please make him feel welcome!

"Justin Gage" might be a new name to you, but I guarantee you'll recognize his nom de plume -- the Aquarium Drunkard. Justin is a serious Indie Rock blogger with a taste for the twang, and as such he's signed up to handle our twangy Indie Rock beat. Please make him feel welcome!

And last but not least -- another "masked commenter" unveiled... The "Aging Hipster" has been revealed as my friend Hal Bogerd. Hal's been a repeat-offender commenter here and a science blogger over at Life Science Tools of the Trade, but let's face it -- science or no science, Hal's passion is music! He's been deep in the Austin and now Durham music scenes and was an early tape trader. He's signed up to take on our rapier-sharp wit beat. Please, please, make him feel welcome!

I'm so proud and happy to have these new authors on our happy home team! Our goal of world domination is so much closer! Muwahahah!
