good for Doc. I haven't seen him in a long time, but his concerts are the absoulute best. He's always been one of my main inspirations to (attempt) to play guitar.

Though it's probably not his birthday, I just have to put in a plug for an old fiddler, Vassar Clements. When I saw him a couple of years ago, he was better than ever.

Maybe music prolongs your life, if you can avoid the drugs and booze. Keeps the mind sharp, clarity of purpose and all that. Happy birthday, Doc.
