I Did It!
And boy was it a thrill. What can I say, To have my own little piece of Ryman Auditorium history, and to have it captured on live tv and video. I'm just a little excited. I also performed at the end of the show as part of a jam with all the other nominees for musician of the year. Didn't go as well as I'd hoped, but that's a long story. Rehearsal this afternoon was a bit odd, some egos getting in the way I fear. I'll be curious to see if it sounded better on tv than it did from the monitor mix on stage; I'm really a perfectionist. But anyway, thank you all for indulging me for the past week or so. I'll try to get some clips up on my webpage sometime soon.
