Hey everyone,
I know this is coming a little bit late, but ever since I got back from the convention I've been going at what seems like non-stop. So I hope you'll forgive my latency.
I just wanted to send out a BIG THANK YOU to everyone for the wonderful acceptance I received at the convention this year. Saying I had a blast isn't quite strong enough!! It was AWESOME!!! Thanks to all my friends for their support. A very special Thank You goes out to Scotty, the convention staff, the great players in the staff band, all of the great steel players, and all of the new friends I met at the convention for making me feel so welcome. It was a great honor and I'm looking forward to next year. God bless all of you!!

Sincerely,
Dino*

Dino, you did some tremendous guitar pickin' at the St. Louis Convention! As I sat in our booth and listened to you play, I said to myself, "I know that guy" and if we're fortunate, we get to hear Dino play at our jams in Branson. You are a delight to be around, Dino, and we hope we get to see you at our next jam, October 17!

Dino, The Only way I can say it is ya you did Bobby Proud , you fit in well, easy going and outstanding guitar playing, tasty as can be without overplaying the Steelers, its tough to walk into shoes behind a guy Like Bobby, But we think your gonna do fine in our group, My House Sound guys all enjoyed chatting and hanging out, and I think the other guys in the band enjoyed what you and Roger brought to the band.

Thanks for bringing the Jams Brother...
