==>imho you get to a point where you choose to block, or not. Depending
on the tune, your style, and the tonal characteristics you aiming for.
You cant achieve some neat effects by blocking and it alows the player
to get a lot of note separation.
I wouldn't try to use it on Pickaway....It sounds sweet on Lorena though!
YMMV
