Hi Charlie....
Saw your post on the Beginner Clinic but I think Saturday is actually Feb. 2nd rather than the 3rd.

If you knew anything about Buck, you would know that he is a very "down-to-earth" guy and would be more interested in the sincerity of my message than my inadvertent reversal of the letters ...

There is some erroneous info going around on the social media saying that Buck Ried passed away. Not true thank God. I talked to Buck this morning and he is doing great and his recent health problems ...

Great pictures that bring back great memories of a great weekend. Nothing like having a top pro photographer in our group!!! Thanks Jim.

It was a great show and a great weekend. We owe a lot of it to you and your buddy, Glen Richards on Sax. You guys always bring the house down with your Swing numbers. Thanks for being there.

Larry.... I have been swamped here at my business with 13-hour plus days but we should have the player schedule out in the next day or two. The guys are working on it as we speak. Thanks for asking.

Also... Gotta add that this year we are having a dance Saturday night from 7:30 'till 10:30. Great band lined up for it playing traditional country and western swing. Keyboard, fiddle, saz, and of cou ...

I've seen Russ play many times and he always blows me away. Sometimes when he is playing a "Patsy" show, he will throw in some really wild jazz chords on C6th that will startle any steel pla ...

Dang !!!! You're gonna have Junior Knight, Steve Palousek, and Robbie Springfield??

Maybe you should expand the show to 5 days.

I think we are gonna have a really good turn out since the holidays are over and the weather is too cold to do anything but jam in the nice warm Northtown Opry Theater. See you guys there.

Did I hear by the grapevine that Steve Palousek was gonna be there? Steve is one of the hottest steel players in existence right now.

I gotta totally agree with you guys.... The first time I heard it, I thought it was Emmons, but there was something different about the tone and attack like maybe Tommy White. Then I found the YouTub ...
