I see the steel guitar player off to the side, so that probably means he did, right?

HH - that sure looks like your buddy, Wade to me. TT - Wade is the bass player that has been touring with Glenn on his solo shows recently. He's one of the band members we've been able to talk to after some of the shows. A really super-nice guy.

Thank you Steph.

If he sang any songs without the guitar, we don't know, because photos are always taken at the very beginning of the set.

Thanks for the picture links. Looks like it was a great evening -- and for a very worth cause.

My mother is profoundly deaf from a progressively degenerative nerve disease that started in her early teens. Fortunately, she can afford the digital aid that allows her to hear at about 60% out of one ear. The other ear is beyond help, but if she needed it and could not afford it, the Starkey Foundation would provide her monetary and medical help as well as community support. They make a global contribution to the hearing impaired and should be lauded for their efforts.

Imagine your life if you were unable to hear and enjoy music. I'm grateful every day that I can and I count my blessings.

I had never heard about this foundation before...but knew it must be very worthwhile if Glenn would lend his talents to it...thanks for reminding us how lucky we are that we can hear our guys' music!

FP, I just noticed I never answered this. I can only do it on IE. I up the zoom to 150% then put the mouse over the pic and the larger pic comes up with no watermark. Then I take a screen print of the pop-up and save it.

The Starkey Hearing Foundation was the charity that Marlee Matlin chose to raise money for when she was on Celebrity Apprentice. She is very passionate about this cause. She went to Africa on behalf of The Foundation to provide hearing aids to hearing impared children there.

As a person with very little hearing left in one ear & decreasing hearing in the other I can really appreciate the work of the foundation. :thumbsup:

Love that pic of Glenn :heart: and well done to him in helping this very worthwhile charity. It is so true what a number of people here have said - we take things like our hearing for granted so much, and should be gratedul for every day that we can see and hear etc.

And for my fellow electronically-challenged borderers, I just text VA and ask her to please do it for me. Works like a charm! :nahnah:
