Another Ward story is that he saw me sweeping the floor one night with a
broom and a dust pan with a cover that open and closed, liked the sound
of it, and invited me up to take a solo with the band....I have no idea
how I sounded, but his graciousness to a young fan will never be
forgotten.  (Anybody else ever taken a broom and dust pan solo?)

Now there's something for washboardists to aspire to!
