Thank you to all mis JAMigos, it was great to see ya'll at the CMA Fest, FanFair booth, the David Ball show, the Buddy Jewell party, the Durango Acoustic Corner Stage, the Indie Outlaw Showcase, the Lupus show at B.B. Kings, and the many other places we bumped into each other (my ribs are a little sore still).

It was great seeing mingling with folks like Chris Young, Winnona, Bobby Marquez, Biff Watson (who is working with Melanie Torrez), Whispering Bill Anderson (who co-wrote "Whiskey Lullaby"), Gabe Garcia (with whom I'll be co-writing in Texas), Robert Oermann (who has a new book about the Opry), Joe Nichols, Aaron Tippin, Mike Siler (catch him on XM's "Willie's Place,") James Otto and countless others. That's all cool, but Fan Fair is about ya'll; our guestimations are that I signed for about a thousand folks at the Nashville Convention Center, Lower Broadway, Printer's Alley, and the various shows--many of you left us an email address so we can stay in touch. Thanks, thanks and everthanks.
