Carrie,
Thank you for being so graciously generous in inviting me to share the stage and do two of my songs with you during your show. As I said last night, I haven’t had a more talented duet partner to sing and perform with…
Never in a million years would I have thought I would get to share the stage with someone this cool!
@DwightYoakam
you are a LEGEND and, now, a friend as well! Thank you!
