Hey Sam, you're sure keeping busy. We will miss your energy and enthusiasm and look forward to seeing you when you come down to visit us.
Everyone, don't forget our next meeting Sunday afternoon, December 2, 2001 at 1:30 pm at Tony Palmer's in Lincoln. You are invited to bring your steel and trade a few licks.
Long live the RI Pedal Steel Association

A steel guitar organization takes a lot of thought, planning and work.
It's a wonderful way for steelers to keep in touch and promote their instrument, but it takes a group of dedicated members and especially, an enthusiastic President!
Fortunately, even with the relocation of Sam White to another state, he will keep things going and we look forward to another show next year.

YEAH! You guys can't quit now! Heck, I just
joined-up last year. I look forward to all
the shows in our area. At the same time they are always both humbling and inspiring. Just
look at this Forum.....there are countless new faces coming aboard all the time. I think the interest and enthusiasm is as high as it's ever been. The steel shows are the icing-on-the-cake within this whole experience. Gotta keep the shows alive!
Thanks, you RI guys/gals, for pulling together,
and keepin' it comin'.
