DIRECT NOTE FROM WALTER: After my illness when I had to spend a year re learning how to play the guitar. Then it was time to try a gig. I had not been on a stage in over 2 years. Most guys would try playing down at the local bar and see what happens. Not me. I went to Royal Albert Hall. Marie introduced me and it was a very, very emotional moment.
