[musictlk] chicken picking

[Data]

There are several ways to get the chicken picking style, but mostly plucking
from the strumming hand, between the thumb and index finger.
My skype handle is "papermusic" and I am online right now. Feel free to
call.
Thanks!

hey man, do you have Skype?
 it would be cool if you and I could talk more about this.
 Also, do you pull the string back with your strumming  hand or with the
hand that is placed on the frets.
