Hi There White Lightning Boys, I love your music and you bet I know Stacy Hobbs! He was just here in Northeast Ohio for The Woodchoppers Ball this past September. He also came up and did a Wizards of Acoustic Guitar show about a year and a half ago at The Kent Stage with myself and Doug Smith. Stacy is a great player and a super nice guy!
