Hi Robert,
Well, I didn't get to go to Nashville but I did do a couple of "next best
things", I went to see fellow lister, Dobro Dan on what I think was his first gig last
night and Dan & "The Innocent Bystanders" did a very decent job. Gotta love a band
with that name, lol. Then today, I just got back from a little job filling in
with some dear friends in a quaint little country Church in Three Rivers, Ma. I
love New England! We have some of "small town America" at it's finest here. The
venue was at least 140 years old!
Now I notice I have 10 unread messages in my "in box" so I figure now that the
First Annual Reso-Summit is a thing of the past, the list is about to EXPLODE!!!
C'mon everyone.....tell me about the fun I missed,
Reso-Rat
