Howard,
That was my first visit to the TSGJ and had a great time. It was nice to
meet you, put a face with the name, sit and pick with you and to sit at the
feet of St Mike too. Thanks for that picture.
Eddie Ortego is a great player in the vein of Josh. He and Carroll Benoit
(pronounced ben-wah) welcomed me to play dobro with them in the Benoit room.
Had a great time!! And hope to be back again next year!!
All the best,
Robert L. Duke
