Back Home In Tennessee

Well I have made the great move back home to the Nashville area and I must say it feels great to be HOME AGAIN! I have sure missed this place and all my friends.Things are going to be busy for me again and I am really glad of that.I am going to help Charlie Stepp with the Derby guitars here in Nashville, and will be going to Louisville Ky. once or twice a week. I am also going to be back playing full time where and when I can. Now, between that and riding my Harley and Bass fishing I hope to stay plenty busy.I have also been known to smoke a fine cigar or two at the Cigar Club in Rivergate on a daily basis .I am also planning a new CD project after the first of the year which I hope all of you will purchase. Well again I want to say it is GREAT TO BE HOME!

Welcome home, Rusty! Does this mean you've given up doctoring?

Yes Jim I am out of the Medical Profession due to my health where you could make tens of dollars, the Music Profession pays litterly ones of dollars. Much more fun to make ones of dollars!

Hey Rusty, sounds great man. I want to thank you again for all the great and "not so great" advise (just kiddin) you gave me at Scotty's this year. Say hello to Charlie and everyone at Derby Guitars for me. Lets keep in touch.

I've been wondering what happened to you. I can definitely relate to the whole Carolina coast back to TN moving experience living in Mt. Pleasant & working in Charleston for 3 & 1/2 yrs. Although we left some good friends there, I really started missing fixing me up some boiled peanuts. Well wouldn't you know it, the wife came home with a big bag of jumbos as I guess the crop was good this yr. So I'm stylin' now! It'd be funny if there was a "boiled peanuts forum" ran somewhere on the SC coast. No problem acquiring a taste for those things.
Anyway, I'm still very much enjoying my Derby. It is my 'default' guitar & as the circumstances were, the RIGHT instrument for me. And once again, I really appreciate your recommendation.
Shoot me an e-mail & let's try to meet sometime. Welcome home.

Thanks everyone for the Welcome Back! Richard Bass what a great guitar player he is and one of my favorites!I am feeling much better and I hope to do the Derby company well. I have been with them since 98 now thanks to a few of my friends like Lynn Owsley and Dale Wagner.I will be doing some steel shows with Charlie and I had a great time in St. Louis this year.You will always have fun with Lynn and Billy Robinson and Ronnie Dale. It took me a week to recover from that MUCH FUN!
