Jackson LOVES his Paradox cup and wants you to know that it is now his official travel mug. It was with him backstage with all of his travel gear.

Does Jackson have a picture in his attic or something? How is it that he never seems to age? Thanks Diane, was he with David Lindley? He is so much fun! Did you wear your polly?
I'm happy he likes his reuinon cup.
Good news, you can all get one at our next reunion, a small donation to cover expenses.

He was with David Lindley who was fantastic. My daughter had never heard him -- she was equally impressed (personally, I think he's a genius).

I give Jackson credit for giving David such great exposure, and figuring out a way to introduce him by joining him on stage for a couple songs each, then leaving him to his own devices. My only regret is that David didn't sing that amazing Greg Copeland song, Revenge will Come, that he sang at the GB reunion. But that was the only disappointment in an entire evening.

Then Jackson brought on the band, the lights, the amplifiers -- he's a rock star! -- and David joined him again later as a member of the band.

It was a great evening. And very comforting in some strange way that someone who has become so famous is still so generous with his friends.
