The List for Monday, June 13th 2022

Welcome to The List,

This Sunday is Father’s Day….and we all remember dad for the things he’s do for us and the sage wisdom he would pass on from time to time. Brad Paisley shares some of the wisdom he got from HIS dad when it came to playing his guitar. “My dad used to say, and this is the best advice.  You don’t have to be good right now and that’s alright.  But, someday you’re not going to be that cute, You’re going to have to be pretty good or you’re just going to talk about the good ole days.”
