Made Two Step Tuesday with Ricky Davis and Weldon Henson last night. Great band and great time. 3 hours of tunes and Weldon stayed up the whole time. Dance floor packed and jammin. Thought we were the farthest traveled but sat with a couple from Croatia . That old LDG and its handler sounded great.

Thanks Fred and it was great seeing you and your Honey.
Yes we don't take breaks from Music. Only break I needed was when I was in the hospital for 2 months last year.....that's enough man...ha..
Here's the video off that CD I gave you, Enjoy.

Boy,if only I could hear more of that on country radio ! Sure beats "bro country" by a clear and decisive margin... Nice work Ricky, very nice touch and tone ! Two thumbs up ðŸ‘ðŸ‘

Oh my gosh, where has such awesome pretty music gone these days? Love it Ricky, I could listen to stuff like this all day. As Dustin says, you cannot seem to find this on the radio, they cater to the young rock crowd.
Awesome job Ricky, er, BTW, can you send me a few of those licks? |

I bought the CD on iTunes today.
This is a must have, especially for steel players. |

Loved the song (Not a Home & The Score) and the steel playing was just superb, tone & touch were just perfection! Coulda done without the corny, cliche' video; would rather see concert footage of the same song, not a fan of non-live videos.

Ricky at the Spoke is part of the Austin experience. One of the better parts, actually.

| Ricky, it's great to know you are up and at em again. That Weldon can really sing. The interplay between his vocals and your steel playing is what I like best. Superb job. |

Thanks Henry; and that is what goes through my mind when I do play; is exactly that: "I would like to be able to play like Lloyd" if he was playing right now.
Thanks Duane, You'da Man.
Hey Slim; I appreciate your very kind supportive words. I always had a handful of great players always willing to help me and how could I not do the same..ah...ha...Glad to be of any help Bro.
