I was playing back on my screen porch the other night and I notice two toads had come out of their holes to listen. They sat up tall and didn't move a muscle until I stopped and they popped back out of view. Is this a good thing?

P.S
Any of you braves ever get to Austin, drop me a line and we'll get together. Go see Charles Thibodeaux and call some toads out of their holes. I hate this electronic/on-line relationship. It is so shallow.
My box has been opening up relationships I would never have had otherwise. Expanding my world, not to mention driving the cats nuts.
Thats pretty funny, when we are playing bluegrass my cat gets all mad looking, but when we drop the banjo and mandolin and grab the accordion and triangle he twirls around our feet. Go figure that one!!!!!
Toads are pretty picky about music. It could have something to do with flies, Captain.
You know I'm just yankin' yer proverbial chain, my brutha!
Love to make it down to Bevo Land one of these quiet weekends and coerce you to show me that toad trick (glad your licks are reserved for the accordion and not the toads). But the same extension of courtesy goes out to you and all the contributors here -- if you're in Texas, you can hang with me, too! It's big enough for all of us! Ha!
I'm opening for Rosie Ledet here this Saturday night. I can't wait to see her fling her hair, man! Rosie is a thrill to experience!
Peace out and you're driving the ship for now, cap!
Well, as ex biologist i'd say one should examine the situation more thoroughly: start by finding a find a grant for financing the lot from a university by putting the right presentation of questions together, otherwise they won't likely fund it.
Some case & cause related suggestions if i may: - 1 brand of accordion - 2 Tuning (was the tuning wet enough etc) - 3 type of tune played - 4 do visual aspects or size of bellows has any sexual appeal towards a frog or toad.
But also the less obvious ones: - 1 state of mind of the player - 2 weed or alcohol involvement, - 3 state of the player itself (things like smelly feet draw flies & flies draw frogs etc. and maybe -4 environmental ones like absence of predators due to the accordion itself, or - 5 predatory duty calls for romantic affairs elsewhere caused by moonlight.
Get that right and you've got finances for years of payed for accordion playing and maybe a secretary to boot for your personal catering without even having to leave the front porch. - nout
