[John Denner]

Got an invite to play Guitar at Walter Reed Hospital in DC
On December 15th in support our fallen troops recovering from the War in Iraq.

They also asked if I would perform this guitar solo?

Very cool, John. They'll be amazed when they see ya play.

I meant to ask. What kind of device is the the pick attached to. Is it like a sock or stocking that fits over your arm?

Thanks,

Great!

Solo gig? or with others?

We should do better caring for the vets than we do.

Thank you for the joy and the escape from the hard work of therapy that I know you will bring to the wounded veterans at Walter Reed.
