Hi Fred (saw that's your name),

I enjoyed this song. I've been to Las Vegas once, but I don't know anything about Reno.
And I'm not a gambler, so I can at least tell you what a great song you made. Great rhythm and beautiful vocals!

Even though you're not a gambler, you must have had the time of your life in Reno.
It certainly seems that way, judging by this song. Everything about it is perfect, I can tell you that!

Hi, Fred.

Nice! It reminds me of some of Mark Knophler's later music, which is a good thing.

It was a bit odd to hear Reno as "Reno town" (especially since their slogan is "The Biggest Little City in the World"), but why let that get in the way of an excellent rhyme? wink

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?

Thanks, Marty. I really enjoyed arranging the intro.

Thanks, Hans. Actually, I have never been to Reno or Las Vega. I have an active imagination, I guess!

Thanks, David. I happened to stumble upon an old movie last week that was set in Reno, and I saw the slogan in neon!
