Extremely cool gig!!! And such an honor. As a resident of Tennessee the only request I've had like that is that I should consider playing in North Carolina and Virginia more. LOL

That's funny. Laughing....

To the OP.... First thought that came to me was, "What's the connection." Who linked you up with the Governor.??

Great honor. And it speaks volumes to your talent. Good work. Congrats.

" Well, there's thirteen hundred and fifty two guitar pickers in Nashville "....

if the words of John Sebastion of the Lovin Spoonful are to be believed,
and that was over 40 years ago.
I'm bettin there's maybe a few more than that now.

So to be asked to play at the Governors Mansion speaks to your prowess.

But then, I've never seen a novice pull out a Gibson L5.
Congratulations.

Congrats! I've been getting asked to do more of these types of gigs, not for the governor, but chamber dinners, restaurants, open houses, etc. It's really fun, but haven't done more than 2 hours. 3 would be a stretch, even with looping and improvisation. I salute you, sir!
