He's got the right genes, eh?

I've heard him. He's special.

Some say he's better than Neal at his age. Not so sure about that.

Anxious to hear the rest of your review!

He's kicking major ASS!!! I landed some very cool and unique pics that even his family loved. Something Frank Martinez created really made the photos... You'll know when you see.

BIG THANK YOU and props to Frank for working so hard to make this special for us!

Yeah he is. Said the show was awesome and he had a ton of pics and such to share. Can't wait for a full report.

I got a text pic from Linda of Miles playing. very cool backdrop. I wonder if that is what Frank made?

You may want to check with him on that before you wish for it ...

Miles was indeed awesome (and seriously cute, Rhi ...)

How was the turnout?

Well, I told him you were hot, so the dork thing is not a problem... haha!

Less than hoped for, but from my perspective, it made it just perfect. Plenty of people including some VIP guests to socialize with without it seeming crowded. We really had a blast, and Frank has lots of extra goodies for us. Will post more when we return.

Wake up, Rip. We need to see the fucking pictures, man!!!

I only heard the first hour or so of the set due to having to leave to catch a plane, but they were doing original stuff. I have a couple of vids, but no time to get them uploaded. One I have is instrumental and called Steppin' (I think); cool stuff ...

Others who were there will have more.

BTW, thanks to Frank for getting this whole thing set up and for being such a mellow and gracious host.

Nice pics, Linda..thanks for sharing them with us. Miles is such a cutie, looks a lot like his dad..love the fro.

Looking forward to the vids you took!

Hey chica .... I was there and it was GREAT seeing you, my bud Rip, and everyone!! ... Great night of music with Miles Schon and his band! Miles is definitely a rising star! So young, and already a great guitarist! So cool to see him singing a bit now. He played for a long time so it was awesome. He also was so gracious and took pics with everyone. Speaking of pics.... Rip got some really good ones!

.... chica Hope

Hope! I didn't realize "chica" here was you. Yes, it was great fun, wasn't it? Sorry to have run off without telling you goodbye. Scott and I had a plane to catch out of San Francisco at midnight & that drive back was hair raising in the dark .

I'll work on the video uploads tonight & see how I did. I know Rip's got some amazing stuff on his camera too.

I know, Linda..shoulda bought that 4*. I kept thinking they would add dates & was holding out for Konocti, but now it's doubtful that will happen; soooooooo, I'm kicking myself in the arse now. You know what they say, 'when you snooze you loose'.

Hey chica! You bettah! tic tic tic
