I would like to extend a heartfelt thanks all of my Teachers, Friends, and Family who have supported and believed in me and continue to do so. And to all of the fabulous musicians who have influenced me throughout my life (and folks, that means everything from John Hartford to Slayer), and especially to all of the incredibly awesome musicians that I have played with and get to play with on a regular basis; you know who you are!! I couldn’t have done it without you (well, actually I could have and would have, but I’d prefer not to get into that).
