Hey; Hope you knock 'em out Billy. Don't get too hot. The coated picks might stick to your fingers & you can't get 'em off.  . Just emailed you about the Emmons P/P parts. Glad you like the picks. Andy H. |

Thank you very much for the parts and you can be assured that I will not pick so fast I melt the coating off my picks.
I would like to say that your pics are great and without a doubt the most comfortable pics I have ever used. I am sending you some nationals and JefFran pics to be coated tomorrow.
Again thank you so much,
Billy

With Clyde being there you can also rest assured that I will not be picking so fast I melt the coating off Andy's picks. I will lucky to even hit the strings.
Thanks

We learned She(He)Thinks I Still Care tonight just for the show. Roni sings it so pretty it will make your eyes fill with tears. |

Billy,
You had better get those picks warmed up because I am riding up with Clyde and we will be watching you pretty close. Looking forward to hearing you again!

Well, I only know of about six steel players that will be in the audience tonight watching your every move... It's easier to play in front of thousands of people than it is to play for six steel players!
See you tonight! Bowie

Billy, I wouldn't worry too much. When Roni gets up there doing her moves, not too many people are going to be watching you anyway!

Bowie, you are correct. I could not hit myself in the butt with a bass fiddle the first set with you, Supreme Court Justice Clyde Mattocks, Glen Lanning,Johnny Barhum and James Barrow in the theater. The second set was much better but the first set was tough.
Bowie, hope you will have us back.
Clyde, you are correct. All but the crazy steel players were looking at Roni and on second thought most of the steel players were also.
Thanks and enjoyed it.

Billy, Don't be so hard on yourself. I enjoyed both sets, that is when I could get my eyes off "center stage". All kidding aside my ears could still hear you and I thought you more than held your own. Good job!

Just wanted to say think you to Bowie Martin for booking us at the Ice House. It is a wonderful place for real country music. If you haven't been you need to go. Every Friday night.
Thanks
