I just saw it too. He even plays great with his shorts on the inside of his slacks. Tommy Overstreet was still sounding good.

By the way Smiley, how long ago was this taped?

Sorry gang,didn't know anything 'bout it. I gave up cable tv about 3 yrs ago. Saves me about $40 a month. Unless its something real important on the news,I don't even watch tv anymore. I got a set of "rabbit-ears",& get about 6 local channels,& that's it. The rest of the time,I'm either in my music room,or on this DAMN,STUPID,ROTTEN,DUMB-A$$ CONTRAPTION CALLED A COMPUTER!!!

(well,I'm glad I,finally,got THAT off my chest!)

I dropped cable TV 13 years ago, and I don't even have rabbit ears to tune into the local channels. I don't miss it at all.

I was watching that show too. They didn't show Smiley for quite a while into the show. He was hidden off to the left, and I couln't hear him until Tommy gave him a ride. He did sound good on that ride too!!!

The Guitar player is Gene Breeden as he did some work with Smiley and T.O. or Visa Versa. I was pleasantly surprised as I was going through my TIVO recordings and caught T.O.And I was wondering before they showed Smiles who was doing T.O's stuff so good. Lo and Behold it was Smilas J. Robetarski.Nice ride on "Love is a bottle of wine".That was about a three plus year old taping in 2001.
