Hey guys, what are the acoustic guitars you used on the Wolf Trap DVD? Are they Olson’s? I was watching the show in preparation for your concert in Melbourne in March. Just whetting my appetite. Sure am looking forward to the show. Travel well. Keep on rockin!!

Tom…I am not sure if you received my earlier comment. I hope I have the chance to see you in Maryland Heights, MO on the 22nd of June.
I am looking forward to following Lara as she moves forward in her career….

Hey Tom!!! Haven’t seen you since KC in ’01. How have you been? It is amazing how talented Lara is. It must be the Johnston gift. Somehow is passed over me. I spoke with Uncle Doug and he said this would be the best way to get a hold of you. I missed you two years ago in Washington due to company travel. I noticed that you are going to be in Maryland Heights on the 22nd and I would like to see you.
I really would like to try to get all the Johnston offspring toghether again. The last time I can even remember when we were all together was in ’72 (I think). I included my email so we can exchange info. Anyway, I look forward to hearing from you….Brett

What’s the price on the guitar? (or if I have to ask does that mean I can’t afford it?)
Martins have a sound all their own. Very nice instrument. Congratulations Tom, a very nice
tribute and in with some praiseworthy fellow musicians.

I just recently saw the Doobies concert at the Horseshoe Casino in Shreveport, La. I have to say that I am totally in love with the band, always have been, and especially Tom Johnston. He is definitely HOT!! I am just a few years younger than him, but I have been a fan since they originated in the late 60′s early 70′s???? I even saw the band in San Francisco during my college years. TJ can damn sure play the guitar and he surely hasn’t changed much since the early years, in fact, he looks better to me now. Just wanted to let you know that I am a fan for life and I guess I’ll just have to fantasize the rest of my life about “Mr. Hottie”. Happy New Year and much love to you all. Keep on “Rockin’ Down the Highway”……….

Tom Johnston (AND Patrick Simmons!!!) taught me how to play acoustic git-fiddle WAAA-AAY back in da early 70′s while I was ensconced in the Army at Fort Hood Tex. and Germany….Iffen it were’nt for my stack of Doobie records (Das’ RIGHT, Digital Doctors…VINYL!!!…not 0′s n’ 1′s…remember!…”Vinyl sounds Finyl”) and OCCASIONAL doobie, I’d have gone crazy!….I wanna thank Tom n’ Pat for their writing style n’ songs that I still love and play today…I believe their music to be timeless and vital, especially even now, when it seems that everyone else has writers, directors, producers, engineers, and all manner of bric-a-brac and sonic toys that can only emulate…NEVER duplicate…the creativity and fantasy of God-given talent. Thanx, guys! Keep on Rockin’! (Uh, Pat?..Tom?….how do yall tune for Black Water???…drop “E” to “D”?…and do yall tune different for Clear as the Driven Snow?) daBear
