Understandably the crowd was very small - never numbered more than 30 as some folks wandered around the Friday Fling. It rained during the whole time, but did quit after it was over, of course!

Read earlier that Dan has passed on. I was able to see him several times in the past 15 years and it was always a great time! Saw Bobby Black play with Dan and the Hot Licks at the Throckmorton in M ...

Scott, can't wait to hear about NSGD! I'm getting excited for you!! Mr. Green

Here's a site that has fairly in depth info on Jerry's guitars and electronics over the years.

Great feedback! Thanks guys! Very Happy

Thanks Bob! Thanks Barry, Doug, Peter and Steve. I appreciate the feedback.

Funny! He is so smooth and melodic. You guys were great backing him up too! Just always enjoy seeing him in this venue. Did either of you see what brand/model guitar it was?

Can somebody chime in with what lapsteel Bobby was playing at the SWSGA show this year and what amp he was playing thru? Was the guitar a Fender Deluxe 8? I've seen him use this setup several times, ...

Daniel, I alway's liked this one : "Hey, when I want your opinion, I'll give it to you!"

Wow Quentin! I wasn't pointing my opinion at anyone or anything in particular. Just expressing my own wrong opinion - IMHO! Laughing

Everyone's entitled to their own wrong opinion. Whoa!

Saw him 5 or 6 years ago on his home turf in Mill Valley. It was a Tribute to the Singing Cowboys theme at the Throckmorton Theater and Bobby Black was sitting in on non-pedal steel. Met all of the ...

It's green horn to green horn Andy! I just jumped back in after laying off for 30 years and same as you - I've got the bug. No distractions at this point in my life either! I know what you mean abo ...

Hi Andy, can you post some good quality digital photos of it? I'd love to see it.

Here's a link to the NRPS at the Sweetwater in Mill Valley - Buddy on steel. My other steel hero is Bobby Black. Really enjoy (and still do!) what he did on the CCLPA Live from Deep in the Heart of ...

Hearing Jerry on NRPS and then Buddy's work on Powerglide is when I became aware of the instrument for the first time. The steel's sound has haunted me all these years since then.

Guys, I haven't made a Forum faux paux by listing on Craigslist simultaneously have I? I would like to sell it so I could get a Peavey N 400 amp. I figured some extra exposure wouldn't hurt my chan ...

Thanks for the heads up James.

Thanks Rainer, that's the kind of input I'm looking for. The collectors value is greatest to the guy who can't live without one!
