I met Will last night at a benefit for ALS in CT. I was very impressed with him. He is currently on tour with Rodney Crowell. He has his own thing as well. He did a solo set that I found quite captivating. We don’t get that many great americana artist coming up to Yankee land. The venue was a line dance, Brooks and Dunn kind of place and I had low expectations.

The Mayocks got to back Will on a few songs and Will sat in with us on a few.
He was a really nice guy too.

Hey Tim,

I've got his number, I've recorded him many times in the Studio. If you want it for the right reasons PM me and I'll forward it to you.

I have to tell you a funny experience of us in the Studio: he came in BITCHING to me about not getting a GREAT sound on his GTR when he had spent THOUSANDS of $$$ on all his gear ( he literally shows up on a session with 20 GTR's and 5 Amps ) and I said "well let me take a closer look at the situation." When I open the door to where his Amps were, he had changed out MY microhone setup and replaced my mic's with his. "His" mic's were Royer Ribbon's and the capsules were BLOWN as soon as they hit phantom power from MY setup ) I laughed my ass off at him treating me so ruthless. Aside from that he is a GREAT GTR player and I'll call him in again & again in a heartbeat.

Thanks for the post, I'll look forward to hearing from you,

Russ

Thanks Russ,

Will gave me his number.

He played electric guitar and lap steel with us, it was a real treat.
This was a last minute gig we did for the cause and it turned out we got to be in front of 500 new people who seemed to really like us.

Blown capsules would make most folks bitchy, to bad he didn't communicate what he was doing.

I am almost positive that it was Will Kimbrough who a buddy called me about yesterday. He said he had heard this line from Kimbrough... I assumed it was a line from a song he had written about a woman...

I don't even want your memories when I'm dead

If he didn't and I dreamed it, I just copyrighted it. ;\)
