You've met Gordon and the band 13 times(? = think this is right), you have three guitar picks from Terry Clements in your closet lockbox in a sandwich bag with your kids names taped inside (my kids have met them 5 or 6 times also), and Barry Keane calls out your last name when he sees us at a meet-n-greet and asks about our kids.

I've asked Gordon a few times for a pick, but he says the flat picks are "hard to find a good one". (Guitar players can ponder that statement) I don't play guitar, but I think Gordon wants you to remember and savor his music, rather than have a 'souvenir' such as a pick or a t-shirt.

Probably just as well. If I had one of his picks I would probably build a shrine around it and charge admission !!!!!!!
