I couldn't have been more thrilled about hitting the road with one of my all-time guitar heros. We left town on November 14 and performed in 22 cities, including the famed Ryman Auditorium in Nashville, before ending the tour on Dec. 17 back home at the Gibson Amphitheater in Los Angeles. We were on the road away from our families during Thanksgiving, and Brian treated all of us to Thanksgiving dinner. This guy is a total class act. Oh, and we met some amazing fans along the way and had a blast getting to know Brian's talented players as well. Bucket list? Check, check.<br><br>
