Title: Acoustic Tuesday on YouTube
Post by: donlyn on December 30, 2017, 07:03:41 PM

So there's this podcast/youtube feature called "Acoustic Tuesday", and it's hosted by Tony Polecastro, who is a youtube veteran. While he has a lot of other stuff on line, this is a weekly show during which he discusses various guitar geek topics which either strike his fancy or are suggested by his viewers/listeners. He and his compatriots have a lot of infectious fun and it's well worth a listen. I stumbled onto it a little while ago and recommend trying it. Already learned a lot of interesting things.

Here is the URL for the entire show list to date, about 18 episodes as of this writing. I still haven't seen them all. Yet.

UPDATE:

I posted about the "Acoustic Tuesday" show on YouTube over a year ago, and am now revisiting this. Not only has the show grown and become more popular, the people who appear regularly have become very familiar. Tony is the host, and Noah is his right hand man, and much more. I have been watching this show now for well over a year, and find I learn at least something new every week. And I'm not just talking about 'trivial' things either, though they do come up a lot too.

It has expanded to a new central website titled "Acoustic Life", which acts as a home base for the show and all their associated activities. Here is the link:

I am not here to shill for the show, nor any of it's associated financial activities. I am here just to say that I find "Acoustic Tuesday" smart, informative, and humorous. You can subscribe to the channel to be notified of new material, including a link to the latest show. The latest show is episode 75 as I write this. You can find any show by launching YouTube and searching for "Acoustic Tuesday ##", where the current number (##) would be '75'.

I enjoy it for what it is, a light hearted look at all things acoustic. And it may not have been originally intentional, but they have opened up about their own lives along the way, and I find them friendly, interesting, and real people. Kind of like visiting with old friends each week, warts and all.

So give it try if you haven't already. You might just like it.

Our friend Zee was highlighted on the show for his "Fam Jam" with his daughter a few weeks ago! Did you catch that?

Sure did. Added some accolades for Zee in the comments for that show.

I also submitted an abbreviated 'Guitarsenal' which was featured in Acoustic Tuesday episode 39.

Hey Zee,

If you want to get a "Guitarsenal" shirt, you are not limited to short sleeve tee's. I poked around on the manufacturer's website and was able to order a maroon hoodie (it's in my guitarsenal picture) and a long sleeved charcoal tee shirt. (Not a big fan of short sleeve tee shirts up here in New England.) If I remember it correctly, it was by selecting the garment type first and then adding the design.
