What a coup for Doyle Bramhall II! A good songwriter, and great player in his own right. Man, that would be too cool, up there with Clapton every night, rippin' through that library of timeless music!

My wife and i have seen him several times....puts on a good show, and with the addition of derek trucks it should not be missed.

I would love to come to sweden to see him with you....maybe our summer vacation should be to sweden instead of new york city!

Trucks is a great player for sure. A slide genius. But Doyle rocks too; in fact, his great tone was one of the reasons I bought a germanium fuzz pedal.
