Hi everyone,
Waiting at Heathrow for our flight home. It has been a wonderful trip to London, lots of stories and pics to post. Thanks for all your kind words, it means so much. -

I'm jealous! I haven't been to the UK in twelve years. Duane deserves every award he gets. Such a gentleman, and he has made an impression on many guitarists. I hope the Eddy's had a wonderful time in the UK.

Interview on The Jonathan Ross Show here:
http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b00sqf7t/Jonathan_Ross_12_06_2010/
Duane starts at about 2:39.
Deed, in the interview it mentions that Duane is coming back to the UK to play live in October!
Is this true? If so do you have any idea where he is playing? Hopefully he is coming to Scotland but to be honest Duane is just about the only person I can think of that I would travel anywhere in the UK to see.

I love MOJO magazine, and it's for reasons such as this, acknowledging stellar music talent that a lot of magazines seem to gloss over while concentrating on the flavour of the month. Congrats, Duane, you deserve it!

Yep, it was truly an awesome night. We're getting over the jet-lag, not so bad really, and after a whirlwind four day trip to England, it's home again.
I have to say, the Mojo Honours was exactly that. The attitude that was apparent in the room was one of respect and care for the music...all music. Not your usual music business gathering, it was quite homey and friendly, no flash and explosions, just a lot of folks who love doing what they do. We had a great time, to say the least.
The Icon Award was a total and complete surprise. Bill Nelson, a fabulous player who we have discussed here over the years, presented the award. You can watch right here.
I was able to log on while in London, and your lovely comments were an added bonus, thanks guys.

I can't think of any award that was more deserved. And what a great speech by Bill Nelson — no showbiz flash. Presenting that award obviously gave him great personal pleasure — especially waving around his 50-year-old '45' of Because They're Young. Top stuff all round.

When I hear Duane's thank you's and acknowledgments from the Mojo Awards Show, I recognize that he is a pretty smart guy who knows exactly where his bread gets buttered!
That was quite enjoyable to see.

Deed, I have already extended my congratulations earlier, but thanks to your link to the presentation and acceptance speech it makes me feel good all over again to know that Duane is receiving recognition for his remarkable achievements. Nice touch that the King Of Twang publicly recognized you as the love of his life. I am very proud for Duane and you.

Mojo Icon---sounds like an official title. Like "Supreme Commander." And it would fit on a personalized license plate.
Congrats Duane, it is certainly deserved!
