No question Vince Gill is one of country music's good guys and now you can walk all over him if you want!   Vince was honored yesterday with the 2478th star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame surrounded by wife Amy Grant, daughter Jenny and good friend Reba McEntire.     During his speech, Vince noted he had lived in California for eight years and now calls Nashville his home even though it's "too humid."  He joked, being a "big fella" he doesn't like that very much!  

"I remember as a 19 year old kid walking these streets and looking at these stars, you know the truth is, it never even entered my mind that, that would ever be a possibility," he to News Channel 5.  Read more here.      Vince's star is just one away from Amy's at 6901 Hollywood Boulevard, next to Hard Rock Hollywood.
