Made it home today at 5:00pm CST. left at 8:00AM from Fox Fire ranch. I was so happy to not have another 2hr45 min delay on Hwy 12 just East ot Baton Rouge. I did get held up about 20 min near layfette on IH 10 due to a truck fire but no big deal. Looks like I spent aprox. $200 on Diesle. Had a great time, well worth the time and cost and made some new friends to boot. Ya shuda been there!!!! Mike

Glad you made it Kyzer. I though you were crazy for leaving until I woke up in my own personal oven. I didn't get to sleep until about 3:30 so I had to make it home on about 3 hours sleep. What a time!
The first corn whiskey is on me next year.

@Deak, I was the guy with the cabover camper, I spoke to you when I 1st got there. I'll get the photos to you I took of you and Billy Gibson soon as I can. I had to work today and I'm trying to get things back in orde here at home. I really like the energy and excitment you bring to every one thats around you. Jumping off the stage really got things going, I have a wireless mic and done that before, it's a real hoot!!. Thanks for really "bringin it" to the show. Mike

Deak, you were a saint to let everyone blow through that way cool mic of yours. I would say, however, that nobody, but nobody (including Adam and Billy and I think they would agree) got the tone out of that rig that you did. You are fat like Cotton. You rock! ---------- /Greg

Deak was the man! I remember watching him jump while he was playing and saying to myself, "if only he was taller he coluld dunk" - LOL! I hope the mic mojo lasts forever.
Still on my way home as I am in Billings tonight. If I drive 14-15 hours tomorrow I should be home. Can't wait to see my sweety. Mississippi is very cool.
