Chapters
00:00 - Ocean Way Studios tour
01:19 - Fernandes Telecaster / Change strings / Great conversation


Notes
An unexpected visit from legendary pedal steel player Danny Dugmore…as well as a quick cameo from Bryan Sutton and Jerry Roe

Danny has been credited on records in the past under the alias “Mud Ogre” which of course is a re-arrangement of the letters in his last name

As you can clearly see, one of the sweetest dudes to ever put in a set of headphones…he is a dear cherished friend.

He is absolutely ordained in this town…EVERYONE loves Danny, and if you ever heard someone talking shit on him, you would immediately know that person is a total asshole.
