I’ve been a Rory fan for years. Hell of a guitar player.

Yeah. Well I am now. I feel like friggin’ ‘Rip VanDumbass’ for not knowing. I may have to pick up a few licks from him. I kinda quit playing very much for quite a while and, like I said, life got in the way. One of my oldest friends is Jerry Donahue. You should check him out with the “Hellecasters”. Sadly, several years ago, he had a stroke while he was in LA and wasn’t found for 12 hours so.... He is in a full time care facility and has limited communication ability and limited mobility. Danny Gatten called Jerry the string bending king of the planet. THAT is praise. We went to a fundraiser for him in 2017 in LA. Here’s a link to a video of some of the folks. You can see my head in the bottom left/center with Mrs rktman. We were sitting with Jerry’s daughter.
