On behalf of Shakerag Productions and Pretty Cool Music, I'd like to thank each and every one of you who came out to support Paul in his time of need. A giant thank you to Zeke and Darcie Williams and family for hosting the show at their beautiful homeplace and special thanks to Joseph Saccocci for putting together the most memorable musical lineup. Much appreciation to the fine chefs at the Burgers for Berger booth and to David Dowling for his fascinating archive of St. Augustine's musical family as well as Paul's luthierie library. Gratitude to everyone who donated items for the silent auction as well as those who bid on them. Hugs to Andrew Douglass and BIll Parker for a great sound show. Twas a sweet success in all ways. Together these fine folks put forth one heck a night for us all!

Thanks also to Bob Patterson, Bob Wilhelm, Jim and Rachel Carrick, Al Poindexter, Ron Spencer, Tuck Tucker, Steve Pruitt, my fellow Gatorbone and Driftwood bandmates, Todd Sheaffer and Peter Rowan for their time and musical magic.

Thanks to master luthier, Paul Berger, for bringing so much joy to so many.
