Mike,I'm sure that's a strong possibility when we play Steel Guitar tag. Be prepared to play anything sitting on the stage. Like I said before, it's a real humbling experience. All in fun of course.

Anyone going as 'spectator only' (possibly having some gear to sell/trade as well?) I think I'll be free sunday (and the wife will be working all day soooo  , however, in waiting on shipment of my new steel (old one shipped out earlier this week), I may not have mine in time to play, but still would like to come out and hear ya'll etc.

Gino,
It's open to everybody. You don't have to play to come and watch. Five bucks at the door and if you have stuff to sell bring it and set it out for people to look at. Put a sign or something on it so they know who to talk to about it. See you there.

Look forward to seeing/hearing the new Desert Rose guitar that Gary Phillips is going to have.. it looks like a real beauty!.. and everyone's ears will be glad that I'm not playing at this one only spectating! |

Joe, have the ice tea ready. I'll be rolling in about 10am with the sound system. If you're not too old and feeble, I could use some help. I'll also have my BSG made by Don Burrows if anyone wants to give it a go (except for Jim, he's kinda hard on knee levers).
