Thanks from the Dodds

[Tommy Dodd]

I too want to thank Scotty, Mary, and all the family and friends involved with putting on the biggest steel guitar gathering in the world. Donna and I had a great time and really enjoyed seeing everyone and having the opportunity to visit and "catch up" with all our steel family.

My sincere thanks to Roy Rosetta, Paul Polish, Ric Boyer, and Roger Miller for their support on the bandstand during my set. They're all great players and make you feel very comfortable on the stage when you are with them. And, I don't want to forget my bud Johnny Thomas (from Gainesville, Ga.) for his excellent lead guitar pickin' on my set too.

Now, I gotta go take a nap. I'm still trying to catch up on lost sleep...... Too much fun!

Tommy, What a player, and you look good in cheap clothing, as I also do. When you had "Dance with me" I thought it was the George Strait, then you counted it out and I though, HOLY Crap, hang on. That was a great way to play that song.
I want to say that Johnny had a extremely difficult guitar solo, and ending and played it flawlessly. What a player he is. Great Job Tommy and hope to pick with you again someday.
