It was an honor to be a part of this event. I've been part of a number of benefit gigs (even though this was a memorial, not a benefit), and while doing such causes always puts a warm feeling in my heart, this gig was a lot more personal since I actually knew the honoree.

Thankyou everyone. H was smileing down on us last night. It was nice to all be together, and for some, it was the closeure(sp) we needed.
big props to paul for being the pro that he is and holding every song together with his mad skills, it was fun shareing the stage with you all. i could go on and on about all the talent that was present last night, but i'll stop there.
It was a beautiful day.
Rest in peace my friend.

Thanks to everyone who attended this tribute. Even if you didn't play your presence was most appreciated. I have to admit this, was the first time I was never nervous to be on a stage. Having Harry's spirit with us and being surrounded by such awesome musicians put me at an ease. Paul amazed me with his bass skills. He didn't really know a single song we did but he nailed everything. You get the SEAL OF APPROVAL. Griff, as always, you kicked ass and it was great to see you and Apple again. Barry was laying down some super sick all instrumental leads that brought the house down. Of course John Stevens on harp. Need I say more about that. Hawk, Bobby, Ed, and Rob on drums. WOW. MJB and Colton busting out some serious blues riffs just like Harry loved it. And a very tender moment with CK and the Boomers alum and Griff with some mind blowing Fleetwood Mac tunes. Also Pat on bass with some great vocals as well. And thanks Jerry for sitting in on some Blues as well. Thanks to all for making this a special tribute to a special man. RIP Harry
