“The biggest surprise followed when Dylan pulled out Dwight Yoakam’s “The
Heart that You Own.” Larry played pedal steel and Bob had some good vocals.
The song was performed well and Bob seemed really into it. It was also

everyone definitely liked it.”

A nice nod to Dwight Yoakam.

Happy Birthday Dwight Yoakam!
