Hey Uncle Larry, just curious. I am heading to Nashville for business (odd that a 73 yr old still has business to attend to) in July. I will be staying at the Doubletree Downtown on 4th and I will be there on the nights of July 21, 22 and 23. Are there any decent music venues close to the Doubletree, or someplace I could walk to…or maybe take an UBER? I really know nothing about Nashville but if You (Tom) or someone that you really respect is playing nearby, I would like to catch it if possible. Obviously, if you were available that would be my preference but, good music is good music. Anyway…thanks for all that you do, and hope to, maybe one day, see ya around. Mike

Hey Uncle Larry. Just had a question for you. My name is Jamie and I’m the vocal instructor for the Army School of Music. I worked on a project with Craig Morgan last year recording some songs for suicide prevention for the military. I’ve been invited down next week for a rewrite and recording of a tune or two at sound stage studio with Craig and some others next week. The reason I’m reaching out is because I was curious if you’ve been hired on too. It would be amazing to meet you. Been watching you for years and regardless of who’s in studio I’d be stoked to hear you play live. If you aren’t in session, are you playing anywhere in town for the 19th/20th? I’d find a way to come out before heading back to Virginia. All my best and hope to catch you for a handshake at some time regardless.
Hi Tom,
Just finished watching Episode 622 “Kickstand Swing” with that beautiful old Guild, playing that Western swing-ish groove from the Fifties, and I’m wondering…you are so fluent in so many styles – how do you do it? Was it a conscious effort like a checklist? Or was it out of necessity to fill a role in a gig? It just continues to amaze me the breadth of your knowledge. Thanks for sharing your gift with us classmates.
