Thanks John.

Is it always embarrassing seeing yourself on TV/Internet?

What do you take for lip movement?? Looks like I'm reading a book out loud.

Jim, I thought that you were praying. I do that sometimes so my wife says (not praying )

Jim, you play with great taste. You make it look so easy. Your back-up work is great...you never walk all over the singer, you let the lead guitar do his thing.
Great work my man!

Looks like it was a big club with a nice light and sound system. Where were y'all playing?

Bent- Thanks, those are my goals. I'm sure I don't always meet them.

Dick- That was at place in Seymour, TN in September 2007 called Big Mama's http://www.karaokecafe.com/ It was an outdoor thing with their large outdoor stage. They were have a thing called battle of the bands. I think we were the only real county band out of about a hundred. The others were rock, southern rock or "modern" country. The last I knew, we were in first place. They announce the winners next week Wednesday.

The guitar is a SD-10 Emmons I got from Jerry Brightman played through Trans TubeFex and DP 750 with N-112 cabs.

Thanks for the comments.

Jim
