Is that Leon Rhodes on the left? I`m wowwing right now that it might be, also noticed his control station compared to Dino`s, I`m jealous of guitar players They get all the chix.

Some years ago I participated in one of Joe's Seminars about pick blocking. Joe admitted he was not a well known steel player but he said someday he would be. Joe was/is a very nice and personable man.

My point being I am proud for and of Joe Wright. He is a great example of what hard work and determination will get you. Congratulations Joe.
