Joined a while back and thought it more than appropriate to say HELLO at this time.

Like many of you I was introduced to Derek through his work with The ABB. That introduction blossomed during his protracted Stint with Eric Clapton. Saw that lineup several times over the couple year period and always came away shaking my head over the power and beauty of Derek's playing.

Looking forward to an August date at The National Theatre in Richmond, VA! Aug 14 will find me there not front row but pretty darn close. Would be terrific to say HELLO to you in person if youre goin.
