Josh Daniel turned me onto your music. I got to open for Doc Watson at The Great American Music Hall in San Francisco. He played in the dressing room for hours before going on and I just sat outside and listened. What a great player he was. I too was intimidated and didn't talk to him. David Grisman was there playing with him and we talked a bit but Doc? He was too busy with his guitar to talk.
Remember Bill Monroe riding his own white horse and showed me he could still cut lumber with an ax he had burrowed from Curtis Shats (my spelling messy, definetely) Jr. Of course, Doc Watson, I remember, along with so many legendary figure.
