That I'm on the front page of the Avalon site as the featured artist!:shock:

Wow, thanks, what an honour!! I truly appreciate that JB and co!!
Made my day!!

My pleasure Rick, your Eden EP is a firm regular on my playlist in work, if it's possible to wear out a CD I must be close to doing it ...

[Rick Jones]

Thanks JB!
I will send you the new one when I get some copies! Very honored by the kind words mate!

I spotted that at the weekend - well done, Rick. A bit of free publicity can't hurt.

Which reminds me too, I must get your CD sometime - have listened to the tracks online and need to get a hardcopy.

Rick see my post in online shop updates...
Come to N.E. Fl. and bring a box of ur CD's, this town needs some RJ pickin'...we'll hook up a lil' side gig and throw down on some rock too eh? Can you dig some Shinedown Madness or some Alter Bridge, maybe a little Dream Theater a la Petrucci is more ur speed!!! Man we all dig ur stuff and yes, "REALLY" you do pull the tone out of those strings/Avi a la SRV! I know cuz I sat right in front of Stevie many years ago in a small club here in town and watched him grimace every note out that beat to heck, 13's loaded, bass fretted strat!
BTW I gotta tell ya what a goof I am. When I first saw your location as Jersey C.I., I was thinking City Island, New Jersey in the States. I just realized this and I mention it cuz tho you probably don't remember, I replied to you once talkin' about Bergen county N.J. and now I thought, gee he must think I'm an idiot! So anyway, just wanted to give ya more props on the Avalon feature...now go record some Dimebag D. riffs on that puppy! just kiddin' dude, take it easy and all the best to ya.

Hey 'dog!!

Thanks again for the SRV comparison, that's amazing because I can't think of another player with more soul and fire than Stevie...I just watched his MTV unplugged show on DVD where he just owns that twelve string!

I'll be in the USA in September as long as my visa comes through ok.... it looks like I may be going to Burning Man festival, but if I can swing it financially I want to fly back to GA and enter the songwriter contest at Eddies Attic in Atlanta. I've been trying to find a booking agent in the South because that's where I think I'd get the best response. Also, that whole Red Dirt music scene, guys like Brandon Jenkins etc looks awesome, I'd go to Texas just to see those guys play to be honest! If I could get a gig too that would just be amazing.

If I can get to Florida I'll be sending you a message!!:D Cheers!

Better get practicing!!!!
