We had a near sell-out on Thursday here with Sugarland- They've just signed with MCA and just about the whole label came down to schmooze. I had a migraine and was in a bit of a fog, but luckily the rest of the band was slammin'. (convention hangover?) Just walked in from tonight's Sugarland gig in Athens, and I had a much better night of it! I sure have been enjoying playing with these great folks.

Friday, my band played at the Big M Car Show in Churchville, MD. When the sun set, we played in the dark for 2 sets. Must have been my out of sight steel pickin or maybe the minority contract that was providing sound and lights. Saturday we played at a private club in PA!

73 yrs young and still pickin, 73 sho bud pro bought new never been repaired, holds tunning very well. From Fri to Sat nite only had to tweek three strings on E9, and two on C6.
I think these were beautiful well made Instruments.

Cubs Fan huh? I noticed you are set up by the door.Is is possible you could see if the mayor of Lower broadway was still parked outside in his ex-mail truck? There must have been parking problems with the Titans playing the same night?I should have stayed the rest of the weak.I miss the coffee,but not the driving around Nashburg(I almost ran out of shorts). Hope you got the tire changed? Image
