Talk about "Team Millenium!!" David got a truck that matches his steel! Now, THAT is being brand loyal!

I must sadly say that, though my attendance was advertised, I had to cancel my trip to the Arizona show due to some good-bucks gigs that came in that weekend and could not be missed. I do wish I was able to attend and I hope everyone has a great time, the show is a huge success, at all that jazz.

Countdown is on, and the number is getting smaller!! Make your plans now if you haven't already!! Herb S. we will miss you, but we also understand the circumstances. Hopefully this will turn into an annual event, so there will be more chances for the people of the SWSGA to enjoy your great pickin'. We are looking forward to seeing the rest of the good folks!!

After receiving the play schedule it has become apparant that I will not be able to be there in time to play an early Friday time slot so I too have advised Fred that I wish to withdraw from playing the show. It would be a good time to have lunch anyway. I hope everyone has a great time and that the show is a huge success. I am sorry I will miss seeing so many of my friends.
