How 'bout to get a free trip to a beautiful country, and play music to people that love country music ?

When was this forum about having an open mind.

this thread has been a gift!!!

LOVE YOU Jonathan Lam

I saw these guys in Perth Western Australia last night and they were amazing. Ain't never heard such a thing - big hats and nudie suits playing country-jazz fusion like it was a prize fight between George Benson and Steeley Dan - it was brilliant. Will - I could see - was having some trouble with the sound guy, but rest assured it came through OK (the sound could have been a bit better from a steel players perspective at times) and sounded really good. We don't get a lot of steel playing round these parts, and when someone good comes to town it knocks peoples socks off.

Will also did a set with Josh Hedley which just vapourised my socks. The event was an "alt country showcase" but there was nothing alt about Josh & Will's set, it was straight down the middle totally convincing nail-your-head-to-the-floor country. Beautifully executed. Will's playing was all the more remarkable as he was basically standing in with a tour mate.

Will is a super nice guy, and took some time with me talking guitars, pickups, our love of Anapegs and other stuff - I felt like I was talking to an old friend. Lovely to meet you man.

Check out the Robert Ellis and Perfect Strangers show when and wherever you can. You cannot possibly be disappointed.

Never ever forget that.
