Speaking of Michael McDonald and his family, I have a friend that I
occationally play music with that is going out to college in Nashville and
has had the opportunity to jam a few times with Michael's son Dylan. There
was one time that Michael came over to pick up Dylan from one of their jam
sessions and he sat down at a piano and jammed with them for a few minutes.
Needless to say I was jealous.
