Wonderful to see the obvious high regard in which Jason is held by the likes of Tom Morello, who is indisputably one of the greatest rock guitarists of all time.  If you've never heard of Morello, check this out: http://www.hunterharp.com/video-of-the-day-18-december-2014-tom-morello-on-the-ghost-of-tom-joad/.  A compliment from that guy means plenty.

We've all spent time on this list bemoaning the lack of respect for harp players.  It's terrific to see a harp player celebrated in this way, especially Jason, who did it all the hard way.  And great to see Jason looking big, bold, and bright-eyed on that podium, too.  That's gonna be one hell of a show.
