1. Love that dude! Thanks bro!

2. He's a friggin badass ...

I can totally sing this song ... and I could probably, with considerable effort and practice, learn the guitar part ... but there's 0 chance I could then do both at the same time. There are plenty of (more simple) songs I can ... but no way on this one. He has a LOT of songs like that is the truth. Dude is talented as shit as a musician, and a top-notch writer on top of it.

3. No doubt.

I remember about 15 yrs ago or more, I had a friend that gave me tickets to see Lyle in concert. Before the show, I was like, seriously?? I was blown away and have been a fan ever since.

4. Cool story, and cool friend :)

He and the Large Band put on a hell of a show, no question.

Hey Doc

6. Not bad mate not bad ...

Bit lonely stuck at home alone (other than the cat) but I've been setting up a new (well, new to me, mostly buying on ebay/craiglist) surround sound system for my PC for music, gaming, and the occasional Netflix or HBO program when I don't feel like going to living room and turning everything on, just watch it in the computer. It's keeping me pretty busy, I'm a bit obsessive about researching EVERYthing.

You?

7. Just busy with work

Your surround sound project sounds awesome! Let us know how it turns out. I finally got fed up with the WiFi in our bonus room and Sunday went to Lowe's and got the stuff to run 100ft of Ethernet cable from our bonus room, through the attic, downstairs to our router. Worked beautifully!
