Praise is a fickle mistress to chase her is to dance with a cyclone. I am a writer whose work I enjoy such as Charles Baudelaire or E.M. Cioran are hardly read or known, but it would be a bland world without their work. Being an artist is not work for the timid or who need praise; it is work for the courageous. ☮
Morning, Otis. The morning is treating me well and I have my coffee. Your doc is absolutely great and I thought it was magic. His story telling is something special. His rendition of "Angel from Montgomery" is classic. Todd is a true troubadour, in my humble opinion, and like greats such as Cowboy Jack and Guy Clarke he seems to try to pass it along. And, Weird id Normal. Todd's great and so are you. May the Circle Be Unbroken.
I'm a singer/songwriter originally from Memphis who lives and works in Nashville by way of recovery. I love WEVL and you and Todd...Otis! Thanks, Otis Congratulations 👏 💯🎵 That's great! Happy Birthday 🎂 Amy
Glad to see you made it home safe an sound already had my coffee quit smoking six years ago but when i get to i'm going to smoke one nine miles long welcome home so just come on home! 😊😊😊😊😊😂❤
Happy Birthday, Amy!!! Good morning! Yes, I saw the Todd Snider doc when you did it. I thought was great. Saw it a couple times and enjoyed it. I will watch it again. I’ll practice my guitar today, honest. Still trying to get my neighborhood squirrels to eat peanuts!
Otis, I hope you and Amy have a great time, enjoying your trip together! Miss Amy, happy birthday and thanks for putting up with Otis! Much love to you both.
Yo! Amy! Happiest of Birthdays. Thanks for sharing Otis with us. He is one heck of a talker/story teller. Lots of good info here. Enjoy your BD. Greetings from Southern California! 🤠🎸🎵
Otis, what an inspiration you are!! From a small time, Worship guitarist/ singer, I love to watch your Ytubes. You bring a humble, refreshing, aura to your viewers. I love to hear your laughter during your interviews. Keep it up brother!! About to go to your website. Peace
Good morning Otis and happy birthday Amy. I loved the documentary and have been a fan of Todd for a long time. I am 70 yrs old and started playing guitar 3 yrs ago, so much to learn but so gratifying and so much fun. thanks for another great post!
Thanks, Otis! I hope you’ll do a “reminder” vid every year! 😊 I threw sumthin in the tip jar not too long ago. ❤ Happy birthday, Amy! My bday was the 18th, my son’s was yesterday…so HBD to all three of us! 🎉
Happy birthday, Amy! Have y'all considered going to Story Inn? You can't get much more off the grid. No phone, no TV, no radio. Just peace and quiet nestled close to Brown County State Park.
Will watch it for sure. Hey, the footage of the squirrels is fantastic. Your sense of setting up this vlog ie the voice over with the images is impeccable. The early images of the cats on your Victoria styled couch with the tape recorder are similar, just refreshing however simple. You have a good eye and your message is why you have a healthy following IMHO. Happy bday Amy!!
Happy Saturday, Otis! Happy Birthday, Amy! That Todd Snider documentary is one of the best pieces I've seen in a long time. It lets Todd shine as he is, and it has a raw feel to it that makes it real. As far as practice and doing things, I fall back on this piece of wisdom: "Know one thing, know 10,000 things. Everything is connected." Enjoy your off-grid time with each other and be good to you 🙏🏻🤍
Howdy Otis, your encouragement to all of us, your cool genuiness...fresh air, weekly,daily makes my life richer. Thank you. Of course I have viewed your documentery. Seen it once, was completely entertained. Will check it out again.✌️🤓
Happy Birthday Amy🎉🎂🎈🥳God Bless you and Otis♥️💞♥️ Thank you for reminding me of my college darkroom days, Otis. We jammed out to This Mortal Coil, Joy Division, and Hank Sr. I still love photography, especially storm pix. So grateful for your heartfelt inspiration.
Great story Otis! You’ve certainly got lots of them but this might be my favorite! Lots of Love, wishes and hopes Amie had the happiest and best of all possible birthdays! 🎂🎉❤🎊
A very Happy birthday to Amy and hoping you both have a wonderful day together .Total respect for feeding the wildlife . You can always tell the calibre of a person by their empathy for our fellow creatures . Kind wishes from Scotland
Take a picture here, take a souvenir. Thank you for what you are doing! It is a grounding force that helps me to feel human and connected. Everything you do helps me to believe it’s going to be okay ❤
I love this, I really needed to hear that about doing a little bit every day or every few days to learn an instrument, etc.! And a big Happy Birthday to Amy!
From what little I have seen on this channel, Amy is a ray of sunshine. Good health, all safe, all well to both of you, Mr Gibbs, and to canine, feline, rodent, avian friends too.

Yes! I’ve seen the documentary, and it’s good because it’s real with no pretense. A lot like your, and Todd’s, personas…100% real. Happy birthday Amy ❤ from the Gulf Coast
Thanks for so nicely putting it in perspective how things you want to have, or be or get better at are part of a process that will unfold on its own schedule if you don’t force it or sweat the details.
Hey Otis! I actually thought about this documentary when I decided to sign up for the songwriting camp. Thanks and I’ll see y’all up in the mountains. Really looking forward to it!
