The point is :- The Jerry Byrd Lifetime Achievement Award is well deserved by John...BUT He knows NOTHING about it whatsoever.

Could SOMEONE please throw some light on the subject.

John has been my closest friend for the past 45 years and I promised him this morning that I'd get to the bottom of this .

I guess I did know that Scotty had a HOF: at the risk of sounding like a drummer (sorry, that's another link), does he have a web-site that contains the HOF info?
Just as an aside, The Atlantic Steel Guitar Club, based in Nova Scotia has a small HOF primarily to recognize our own members. This year on his second visit to us we did name Kayton Roberts to our HOF -- to our amazement, he said it was the first and only award he had ever received; that raises a question -- WHY?

HOF
There's a link to the Induction Process at that page. Nominate Kayton.

If he gets in he'll be the first International Inductee.

Sorry Joey (maybe I should have been a drummer). The only HOF I have any first-hand knowlege of is our own at the A.S.G.C. Kayton has been installed in that one -- presentation took place August 17th!
He indicated that it was the first, and only award he had ever received in five decades of performing -- I was just trying to figure out why no one had recognized him before now.

Patience please-we have all been traveling. To my knowledge, some one was there who took the award back for John. Many people there knew who he was, and were not surprised. I, not being a non-pedal OR Hawaiian devotee do not. Everyone there was much in agreement the award was well deserved, so perhaps when someone gets hom they can enlighten us....
