Roger,

I can't thank you enough for the kind words about the show and the listens. Both are really appreciated.

It is always my pleasure to play Billy's CDs on my show. Of course, Vol 1 of the Tommy Duncan tribute was the #1 CD on my show for 2009. I am really looking forward to getting Vol II on to the show. Your steel playing is an added bonus on all of Billy's music.
