Hello Jim, Long time no hear! 
I share your sentiment!.... maybe that's why I practice such a lot lately!  |

Hello Nic,
I'm still playing and listening to your CD and I can't think why you would need to do much practising !
If you look at my signature you'll see why I should be practising much more than I do 
Back to my earlier comment ("I just don't want to go") ~ I've got so much learning to do that I can't see how I'll find the time to go !

| If I could get one percent of the admiration that John Hughey received, not for playing, but for being the kind of person he was, I would consider my life a success. |

Bill, I'd like to be remembered as a guy who did the best he could with what the Good Lord gave him to work with (I probably better practice a little more to even get that far)

So much for the loan, I'll just settle for a fishing trip.
I want to be remembered as a people person. A good family man and grand father. That guy who couldn't play steel but had great tone and made great spaghetti.

| Someone who tried to be a good son, husband, father and grandfather, oh by the way he loved playing a funny looking slidey instrament. At least my immediate family knows what it is called! I think. |
