Subject: RE: OBIT: Farewell, Chet Atkins.... (1924-June 2001)
I did a show with Chet in 1992 in Winston-Salem NC.
When I went to pick up one of the other performers Chet was there in the hotel lobby ready to go. He asked me if he could ride with us so I said sure.
My trunk was packed with all my equipment and after moving everything around- there wasn't room for Chet's guitar!
Chet had to wait for another ride and I was embarassed beyond words.
