Hi...some vids posted under 'gasimon' on youtube going back to 1988 . Several bands I play in from the Kent/Cleveland area. A few years back, little Kent had 4 steel players but not sure now...

In my 20's I used an Indian motorcycle seat and it was just fine..until a fire ate it...now in my 70s, I need the back support so it is pack seat time. Whatever works.

Perhaps someone who knows Rolene better than I, and more
importantly , she knows, could let her know she was probably hacked..??

Got this today:

Ha. John...not much to hear when I'm playing alone...I'm more of a sideman noodler...but the company was impressive and the product sounded great, I'll even be able to carry it in these elder years.; ...

Cool effect...worked well in this song...nice to hear some experimentation and I think the steel lends itself to unique sounds...
