Here's a brief example of what you can expect at the Seminar:
Extensive "how-to" instuction by Joe Wright and L.T. Zinn. You'll learn things here not taught at any other seminar. Evevrything from what to play, and how to play it correctly.
Open discussion with myself and Gary Morse on subjects like equipment maintenance, processor programming, what's new in all the latest equipment, and how to use it. We'll also have discussions on what it's like working in recording studios and on the road with stars like Dwight Yokum, Ricky Scaggs, Highway 101, Jimmie Dickens, and many others.
This Seminar promises to be different than anything you've been to before, and a wealth of information on topics you might have never had the chance to ask about before. You'll get first hand information with all the details, and right from the people who's been there - done that. Don't miss this one! |

We are getting super excited now!!! This show is going to be a zinger!!! I'm glad I won't have to miss it. Wish I could be in Chattanoga to see my son Frank Rogers do his stuff there. He'll be here in G R for a set on our show. We have a lineup all the way around that is terrific. As someone once said, don't you dare miss it. Evelyn

And, I might say you are in for a real treat to hear Frank play his "Chalker Stylings" on his steel guitar-not to mention his great lead playing. This will be a great show and it is for a great cause.

Hey Mr Stafford
Thank you for the nice comment about Frank, I'm never afraid that I will have to eat my words when I tell people what a fine guitar player he is.
Now we are looking forward to you, Bill and your most fine stylings on that amazing instrument you play.
It's a pleasure to have you on our show.
See you soon, Evelyn |

Yes indeed, Evelyn! Frank is one of the most prolific musicians I have ever known, and a real pleasure to work with. I am honored any time I have the opportunity to perform with Frank. It just doesn't get any better than that!
Mr. Stafford's style of playing is very unique, and the most soothing I have ever heard. A very talented man. |

Now Don't you guys go off bragging about Ol Bill Stafford too much, Betty sez his head is almost too big to fit in the car for the trips out now. 
Seriously, Bill Stafford is one of the Finest Men and Smoothest Steel Players, I have ever known and I've been knowing him for 34 years now. He never ceases to amaze me, just keeps getting better and better with age. Every time I visit with him, I just sit there and listen to what new things he has picked up since my last visit, with my mouth hanging open. Its been quite a while since I have been able to visit with him and Pick with this Old F@rt. Afraid Michigan is a bit too far away for me right now, sure wish I could make it, Have to try and hang on to my day job.

Evelyn, I wish you could have been in Chattanooga this past weekend to hear the great set your son Frank Rogers played. He has been a "well kept" secret in the south and southeast, but not anymore. What a pleasure it was for me to meet him and work with him and I'm looking forward to the next time.  My best to you and to my buddy "L.T." The Hall Of Fame Show sounds like it's really going to be super. Wish we could be there......maybe next year.

We are looking forward to next year already and having you there. (along with Barbara)
I always hate to miss Frank, wherever he plays. I'm VERY proud of him.
I have three sons and they all play and/or sing. Our life has been blessed with music.
NOW, plan on being here next year and I'll sure tell L T you said hello. Evelyn |
