I agree. Most people don't think of DADGAD as a tuning for the blues but it can be really fun and interesting.

When I first started playing with DADGAD I order the Artie Traum "DADGAD For Beginners" 3-DVD set from Homespun. He teaches ALOT of fun, simple blues patterns and licks that can be mover around on the neck. I have alot of fun with it.
