I liked the solo BTW. Not bagging on it at all.

He did light it up the second time around. I suppose he is minimalist compared to the million note a second dudes.
I just love the guy. He is a consummate pro and one of the nicest people you will ever meet. His nickname is Derek "Big House" Obrien. He did some time in the 70s for possession of weed.
Thousands of people petitioned the governor to release him. He was released but is still a past felon. This was during the hey day of Austin's drug scene - Club owners were dealing coke out of the back room. Poor Derek just had under an ounce.
I walked him to his car one night after a late gig downtown (I walk the old guys and the women) and he noticed my sidearm. He told me he would get one if he could - then told me the story.
Holy shit. My nickname is "saw a prison movie once"
