Wasn't there and am not familiar with the third guy, but wish I could have seen and heard this jam ! Had to be some fingers flying !

I watched Tommy Emmanuel and Jim Lauderdale do one or two together at the cabin stage. It was great.

The third guy is Bryan Sutton, one of the best flatpickers on the planet. And there is some video from the show as well.

Default Thanks !

Alan,

Thanks for the info and video. Awesome ! Big TE fan and bigger PB fan so I was just thrilled for Presley. Considering your status as one of the best pickers on earth, that is some high praise for Bryan. Presley said that it was Bryan's set and he invited him up on stage to play. How nice of him ! Feels like history was made and I missed it.

Perhaps soon we might add a two time Henderson Guitar competition winner to that mix and make history again ! You up for it ? How awesome would that be !!

Will you be able to make Wayne's this year or working again ?

Thanks !

John
