Unfortunately there's no real close-up of the steel player but he looks a little like Randy Kohrs. No idea if Randy also plays PSG besides Dobro.

Kind Regards, Walter

Excellent performance by The Kid. Really putting it out and testifying. Looks/sounds like he finally found the truth. I'm glad for him. Welcome Kid.

very nice performance..yeh it kinda looks like Randy K on Steel, and yes he does play Steel and guitars as well..but the truth is there is no little grey streak in the beard so it's not Randy .... :)

i've always found kid rock ..his persona and his hats...to be a little annoying. what is it that people like? certainly not his voice. he's always seemed like a punk to me. what am i missing?

admittedly, i hate the rap/hipittyhop attitude by anyone.

That is my old Emmons.
I sold it to Gerald.

I sure miss that guitar, but it is getting great use and with a great guy.
Nicely done Gerald.

Great work Gerald ! You had that old Emmons sounding sweet and in tune. Just perfect !

I'm jealous and real happy for you. There is nothing like playing those super high profile gigs. When those gigs come up I feel like a kid just called up from the minors walking up to the batters box in Yankee stadium every time.
