, I can't help but get emotional everytime I hear these guys, we had the pleasure my wife and I of meeting them in Nashville at a place called the pink cowboy on Music Row my wife and I were in Nashville for a special reason we're at Vanderbilt hospital,.... she had cancer and was taking treatments there and at that time she was still feeling well, we walked into the bar and we noticed that the bar was almost empty,,.... and we walk to the bar we order a drink,.... the bar had been rented out for the night,,.... my wife asked who it was that rented it outt,... the bartender just cut his eyes and look toward who it was and my wife looked and she said Oh my god it's blackberry smoke and she ran to the table and you would have to know my wife she is very very spontaneous and she was very very likeable & sweet ,.... but she walked up to the table and she introduced herself and they took to us in like we were family",,,..... after they learn the reason of why we were there they were there,..... they were there cutting a with George Jones and Jamey Johnson I'm sure everyone knows the song,.... yesterday's wine,..... We felt so special to be able to sit down with these guys and listen to their stories and talk to them,.... they are normal people just like you and I,.... they walk the same streets breathe the same air and drink the same water as we drink they are no different they treat you just like you are fans...... we all are they treat u as such,.... I look forward to seeing yell in New Orleans on May the second at the House of Blues and see you all again,.. you'll will always be in my heart for the way yall treated us that one night in Nashville but thank you for the emails that you all continue to send I read them and smile and thank you for leaving tickets for us whenever y'all have a show that's close,.... I think it's amazing that people do that especially people in your shoes that are famous so to speak,.... I am proud to say that I'm your personal friend,.... when Windi passed away in 2013 on October the 21st at 11:30 am,,,,.. . the album that y'all signed for her,... she never got to listen, to it but I had it framed,... and it is hanging on a wall,.... in our game room it is a special peace to me and I will never get rid of it I have seen nine shows of y'all so far,.. I've got to see and talk to y'all four different times. I hope when y'all come to the house of Blues that I get to see you all again and catch on what's been going on,... there again I appreciate the friendship and will always value that,.... y'all keep it up guys y'all doing a great job and I love the new album I purchased it the second day it came out it's been in my CD player ever since.... And I will never forget y'all and my wife went to her grave loving you yo very special,... And every time that I've seen you on face to face y'all remember who I am and to me that is very special because most people in your shoes don't do that because of the people that you don't see everyday I,..... I'm going to close now ,,,.... See y'all made the second hopefully I will get to visit with you home your friend david johnson
