I know I speak for Johnny when I say that it has truly been an honor and a privilege getting to share this experience with you guys for the past year - one that I will cherish for the rest of my life. Keep the blues in your soul and never forget the good times you had kicking back and crackin' open a cold one with Shoeless Kay Staps and Blind John Johnson at the helm. I know we won't.

Until we meet again, friends ... stay positive.
