Seriously MB, he started Suzuki Violin lessons at age 3. He played his first Bluegrass Festival at age 4, along with Bill Monroe, Ricky Scaggs, Flatt and Scruggs and many others. Cut his first album at age 8 along with his dad's band. He grew up "on the road" performing all over the country. He once played at the starting line for the Winston 500 at Talladega for 100,000 people. I think he was about 10. He is an Alabama Colonel and honorary member of the Montgomery Rebel Baseball team. He's an honorary Air Force Pilot and honorary Boomer. He has been entertained in the private Thunderbird room. It would take all night to list all the honors he received as a child. We have always been very proud of him. He's a good son, and hates it when I brag on him. But hey, that's what Mothers are for.

Wow!!! He has been blessed with a God given talent. I don't blame you at all for bragging on him, that is exactly what mothers are for!

I would love to hear his music. You're his mother, MAKE him put it back on his website. LOL! ;-)
