Hi Guys:

So far, this thread has created more questions than answers for me. First, let's continue the discussion about UD. Other than being married, what else is new about this great guy? I sure miss reading his sometimes spicy posts.

Mason, what are you up to with a career change this late in your life? You're still a few years behind me, young man. Sorry I forgot your birthday. Did I tell you I finally got to meet the famous Bill Pittman at an NSAI meeting in June? He's really a very good songwriter and performs well too.

Don,I sure hope everything works out the way you have planned it. Yes, it appears that the law of supply and demand has come into play. You decide to slow down and the demand for your performances has picked up. Why am I not surprised?

I hope you (Mason) and UD will let us know more details about what you guys are up to. For my two cents, you two, Scott Yee, Fran Caragno and Donnie are the "Old Guard" here at the "Zone" and I appreciate all your contributions on behalf of the rest of us.

All my best,

Dave Rice
