  <description>After letting things SLIDE for a while, the guys talk the ins and outs and arounds of slide guitar. Somehow, doing less is more. Wikipedia proves to be an excellent resource. Strings are talked about. Oh and Kalimar sounds a little like the internet, but c'est la guerre - at least you didn't see the video issues!
