[Ken Byng]

I have heard clips of you playing Willie. You will be a star performer for sure. Once you get the first couple of bars out of the way you will relax. I was a little nervous before doing the Dallas Show last March, but nerves can keep you focussed. Everyone in that room in Dublin will be rooting for you, especially your fellow Scots.

I have had a chronic chest infection for the past 2 weeks. I played on Sunday just gone, and probably played the worst I have ever done in my life. I put it down to the fact that I'm not feeling 100% at the moment, but I have a big show tonight and want to be on form for that one. I'm just glad that I have a little gap between now and the Dublin show, as my woodshedding time has been impacted on. I have got one number which is still not right at the moment, as it is a bit of a production number to close on with some unusual moves. I will just go over and over it until I can't get it wrong. (Hopefully)

[Peter Nylund]

We are all waiting to hear the tall and handsome scotsman play. See y'all soon.

[Willie Gamble]

Thank you shorty Nylund, it will be good to see you and Mette again

WILLIE, YOU MUST GET A PICTURE OF YOU AND PETER STANDING TOGETHER.

[Willie Gamble]

And that would be the long and the short of it Donny, They are two very nice people, but I would never tell them that

[Uffe]

I will bring my camera! It has a long zoom and also a wide angel lens, I'll do it for you Donny! No charge!
