Wow i didn't even know about that. He's definately a tough old guy, and can play that fiddle better than probably anyone alive today.

To one of the most down to earth, talented, and simply cool musicians out there, i say get well soon!

He played up here a few years ago and a buddy of mine who is a local musician himself got to go on his bus and sit and talk with him. Said he is a real down to earth fellow and a gentleman. I'm glad he's going to be OK! 8)

+1 on his guitar playing! I saw him several times back in the late seventies - early eighties. I always favored the guitar playing songs over the fiddle playing tunes! :P
Check this vid out..(no country fiddle playing here) :wink:

Charlie Daniels was once asked what he considered to be his greatest accomplishment, to which he replied, "Keeping 15 people employed for 25 years." Helluva guy, and a helluva musician. Get well soon buddy!
