    I think I saw this guy once, but he wasn’t playing – just hanging in the subway with the guitar on him. Cool story.
    Do you know Saw Lady’s blog? It has photos/info about NYC’s subway musicians. I’ll have to see if Chuck is mentioned there: http://www.SawLady.com/blog

    I saw him a few days ago at pier 39 in san francisco. He played so good, so i bought his album.
    While listening to one of his track, I wanted to know who he is and i find so much great comments and posts about him. Now im very happy about seeing him live in SF…
