jeff pillman 08/15/01 9:36 a.m. duke, your site is as colorfull and creative as your teaching! , you once said that music theory is like going down a hallway with many doors to open and explore.thank you for showing me the hallway. |
| Mimi June 06, 2001 1:41 PM Duke- Awesome website! I really like it! You're such a fun teacher! Thanks for always being so flexible with me. |
| Leanne June 05, 2001 9:34 PM D, You were my first and last music instructor and, have not only added musical depth but wisdom to my playing. Can't believe it's been 30 years! Wow. Leanne |
| Paul Schoenig June 2, 2001 7:50 PM Duke, Incredible website! I feel incredibly lucky to join everyone else in recognizing your excellence as a teacher and a musician. But I believe you should also add Musical Therapist to your many titles, because every time I leave a lesson I am pumped........and this is coming from a social worker! Paul |
| Julie Charles 06/01/2001 11:35 AM Good thing I was *strapped in* before I viewed your site! It is fabulous!! Can't believe the good fortune it was to have found you for Bet-c's bass teacher! You are a spectacular teacher, and I just can't thank you enough. julie charles and yes, of course I have websites for you to link to..... www.livewirejewelry.com and www.crackpotmosaics.com |
| Lili 06/01/2001 10:39 AM Duke, Incredible site! First, thanks so much for working with me. My interest in the bass grows with every lesson and I know that would not be true with just any teacher. And for anybody interested in lessons from Duke, let me tell you this: With all the lessons I've taken in many different areas, I went over things time and time again with the instructor and often got bored before I'd even learned anything. Every one of my lessons with Duke has been fresh and though I'm only there a short while, I've never left feeling like I didn't totally get a hold of what he was teaching. Thanks Duke. Keep up with the charged attitude. At each lesson you are so excited to be teaching...even when I'm the last session of the night!....now that's an inspired teacher. Lili |
| Jessica Derickson 8:34 pm 5/31/2001 Duke, I love you! Can I get a witness? Lemme break it down; I was an eight year-old little girl with a classical on my knee learning to sightread from the best, most loving, creative, passionate and committed teacher out there. Do you truly realize the scope of your impact on the lives of those of us lucky enough to count you, not only as Teacher, but also as Friend? You have been a touchstone in my life for the last 20 or so years, and I couldn't be more blessed! Magical Bunnies Deeeee-light!!! He-Hee!! I love the website- It is the ultimate digitization of the musical hub that you are! Love and light always, Jessi |
| Christine Schaefer 10:33 PM 5/29/2001 Hey Duke, I love the website!!!! I can't wait till I'm able to play like you! I love takin lessons from you.... you make it really fun! See ya next lesson! Christine |
| Sarah 8:04 AM 5/29/2001 Duke~ I just wanted to let you know that your web site is great!!! You did a really good job and i think it is awesome that you are expanding . I'm practicing really hard, and I'll see you Tuesday. |
| Mike Reich 3:11 PM 5/28/2001 Duke, Love the new website! OK, for those of you who don't know Duke - last week, I came in for a lesson (and you can learn more from Duke in 30 minutes than you can in a semester of college!) and here's this 9 year-old girl sight reading music with a full-sized guitar in her lap and here I am, almost 48, embarrassed and envious at the same time because she found Duke so early in life. I mean she's gonna be a chainsaw! We both got a great lesson that day. And the new CD helps tremendously with lead guitar and vocal work! Anyway, for those of you out there looking for a GREAT teacher, DUKE is the man! He will teach you as much (or as little) as you can handle each and every lesson. NO HOLDING BACK! Your friend and student, Mike Reich. |
| Scott Bowles 9:41 AM 5/26/2001 Hey Duke! You rock! This is Scott Bowles. How have you been doing? I came across your website and thought I'd email you. I still talk to people about you all the time. I learned so much in those 2 years. Those days in your basement were some of the best times. I remember your Mesa Boogie Mark IV and the awesome tone it had. I'm still looking for that tone without paying $1500. Anyway, it was great to see your site. Hope things are going well for you. |
| Bill Taylor 2:33 PM 5/25/2001 Hey Duke, nice web page. I loved reading about the history of the "Duke Man." I think your web page is going to be very cool with everyones links and stuff. I just want to say one more thing, I have had a bunch of guitar teachers and Duke is by far the greatest. See ya. |
| Feyza Eren 4:28 AM 5/25/2001 Hi Duke, I checked out your new website and it's beautiful! Your positive and inspiring energy shines right through...and you are so right about the love and devotion...it's truly the key to it all! Love, Feyza |

Rob Garland 2:47 PM 5/24 Duke, The website looks fantastic and is as inspiring as every lesson you teach. If I start to drown in the double diminished seas, I now know where to find the shore!! Rob |
| Lisa Wiederholt 6:40 PM 5/23 Hi Duke, What an awesome website you have going on there! I am very impressed with it! I love the colors and the philosophies, especially as in how they apply to life. Also, I agree that some of life's best moments happen in relation to music. It was good to get a boost of Duke-energy via your website this morning. Peace to you-- Lisa |
| Kathy S 9:10 PM 5/21 Duke, great web site! Only I know what practice, practice and practice it takes to be a great musician (since I had the room next door). You are the coolest guitar player and the best brother. |
| Linda 8:04 AM 5/21 "Way Cool Website"! It was fun reading the family history behind his talent. |

Ken Boegeman 5/20/01, 4:11 PM Duke - we love the philosophy & looks of your site. As I've often said (and you've often disputed) you ARE the coolest person in the universe. Are you actually looking for new business? Is what you do actually a JOB??? Be very careful, you wouldn't want your lifestyle to turn into work! Seriously though, you're one of the best teachers and finest people we've ever known. Jam on! |

Julie Boegeman 5/20/01, 4:11 PM Hey Duke! Cool web site! We waited until we could all look together, love the colors and familiar sights on the site. Congrats, the web site must have been tons of work to be so cool. |
