Mailbox Mayhem: Rob writes, "Hi, Rachel, I saw you perform with Uli Jon Roth at the House of Blues last Sunday in Chicago and you blew me away. I especially loved the rendition of 'All Along the Watchtower.' I thought when you threw your shredded bow hair to the audience, as rock guitarists throw souvenir picks, was very funny. You Rock!"
