I can only imagine what it's like to play at that skill level and to have a colleague of equal skill to share that with. I'm sure they both realize how rare and special that is.

Yep. It's all there. The pure joy of making music; the look to each other that says "We are the best on the planet aren't we?" The thrill of pulling off the magic trick of being in perfect musical synch.

What kind of tailpiece did he have on that resonator?

Exactly right allows for a change between standard dobro "G" and "D" tuning (hi-lo) D-A-F#-D-A-D . The "D" tuning has become the standard alternative tuning in many dobro circles.

The change is solid as a rock.

Standard G set.

That's some smoking Dobro and Guitar playing. Fine stuff beyond my reach. Incredible talent from both musicians.

Jerry and Tommy will be touring Australia in April. I'd like to see Jerry but he is the warm up. It is mostly Tommy' s show I believe.

Killer stuff! Even though Paul Simon and Art Garfunklel recorded under the name "Tom and Jerry" would love to see a collaborative album with these two. Thanks for sharing!
