saw a really awesome show tonight. i was wandering around town earlier today, with the finger picks in my bag just in case and got a chance to give them to ian. he was very appreciative and really seemed to like them. and he used two of them at the show! these photos are not very good but oh well...
here is their infamous camper in front of the venue.
see them? he said he preferred a plastic one for his thumb but that the other two were great. how truly amazing that he is using something that i made with my two hands to make his incredible music...
the opening band, diamond doves, (who were really good) played with them a lot.

The pictures of him playing with your picks on- priceless!! Travel safe and soak up every moment. Best wishes.
What a cool feeling that must be to see him using your picks you made for him! So glad you captured that moment! Can't wait for him (and you!) to come visit us folks in Salt Lake City...... now back to work for poor little me.
thanks, susie~ so very cool!
and emily, yes, i can't wait to see you (and them) in salt lake next week!
