Hi Everyone,
Jet has asked me to say "Thank you so much" to everyone for your very kind comments about him receiving the MBE. It means so much to Jet that people are genuinely pleased on his behalf.
Jet also wants to share with everyone a message that he has just received from the great Duane Eddy. Here is part of what Duane wrote to Jet today:
"Dear Jet,
Duane here ... I am writing to congratulate you on your MBE. What a great honor! What took them so freakin' long?!
I've seen bits of your shows on Youtube and was knocked out that you do my 'Theme for Something Really Important'. And you're right, I don't do any of your tunes ... but after hearing 'Diamonds' again this morning, I'm thinking that ... I still won't do any of your songs! Too many notes for me. Seriously, I may have to work out an arrangement of 'Diamonds' just to get back at you!
Again, congratulations and my very best to you.
Your friend,
Duane"
Jet says he is "thrilled to bits" that he has received this message from Duane and he is also very touched to read everyone's good wishes on this site.
Thank you!
Best wishes
Audrey
