:D Best player for his age that I've heard in a long time. Kid's got it going on. Even more impressed that he pulled it off at a steel show. Keep up the good work.

That was great, I love this song and the whole band played it brilliantly. That young man certainly has a future playing steel guitar.

Yep, Tobin is a killer alright.

He picked this song up from Tommy Dodd, who picked it up from Jeff Newman.

Tobin plays it to perfection.

He has got to be the best 15 YEAR OLD player ever.

Tobin,

How long have you been playing? You are awesome for your age.

What made you decide to play the steel?

Mark I started playing when I was 9. I got inspired after seeing a local guy playing at a party, and started to look into it more and more until I got a lapsteel. Things just kinda took off from there.
