I saw his name in the newest member deal the other night. I always figured we had some big time company around here http://www.mandolincafe.net/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif
Wait till MandoJeremy finds out he will wet his pants. http://www.mandolincafe.net/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif
I remember about 10 years ago when I first met Jeremy he was a Benson nut. He was playing Benson practicaly note for note. I think he was like 16 or 17 at the time.

Add Wayne to the list of professionals about our ranks. I was pleased to see the recent input David Wallace McLaughlin has had to offer (sorry Dave, I bet your mom called you that when she was angry with you). I was at a guitar show about ten years ago, hadn't been playing that long, and was plinkin' on a mandolin for sale. I looked up to see David standing there. I suddenly felt very self conscious as he asked me if it was any good. I should have said it wasn't as it didn't bring out my best playing!
It was a treat seeing one of my favorite players in that environment.

Maverick, that is funny that you remember that and yes I was, and still am, the biggest Benson freak ever! #You have to realize that Wayne is also a Bush freak, the same as I, and I just always loved how he put Bush's creativity with his own! #Also, the last time Wayne and I got to sit down and jam we played Funk 55. And, I am wearing my Depends!

Sorry I'm a little slow.
I thought they might be a little more creative.
