Friends I just want to say a few words about this Show.
Oct. 2nd, 3rd. and 4th has got to be one of the high lights of the year for me. I have made and played all but the first of these shows since it started I think six or seven years ago.
Let me tell you a little about this show.
First, its club members are like one close family, really. These folks are not in it for the money, as they do NOT even charge to get in to this Show!!!
Its strictly donation only. But here's the real kicker, they feed everyone that comes thru the door, all weekend,WOW. Again its strictly donation on the food.
The stage is (floor level) with the audience, you talk about a warm fuzzy feeling Show, this is it folks.
If your in Kansas,Arkansas, Missouri or Oklahoma, and can afford the gas, and LOVE STEEL GUITAR music, you need to attend this Show, Its FREE!!!
There is just something about this Show, you go to one of these Shows and you'll be back each year, its that simple. I love it, I love it!!!

This year will be the first time I've had my new "JUSTICE GUITARS" at the Show and can hardly wait to play and show them there.
Now folks, if you need S.I.T. Strings, Hilton Pedals, a new Justice rack case, guitar case or speaker cabinets, hold on daddy's coming. Very Happy
We'll have lots of other goodies as well.

Ok, I'm about to fall off my soap box here, thanks for listening my friends and I'll see you ALL soon. Very Happy Very Happy

I agree that this organization is super good.

It was my pleasure to be there a couple years back when my buddy Curt Shoemaker was inducted into the Hall of Fame.

If you haven't been to one of their shows, please go, especially you folks just across the line in Missouri, Oklahoma and all you Kansas steel lovers.

No promises, of course, but I do hope to be there this year. Am not a steel player but am an old country musician that loves the instrument and those that play it. I play a little bass and sing some. I am a b ig fan of Scotty Hendersons and have heard several others who have said they will be there. Sounds like fun, so I'm gonna try. Ray Carson

This is a great show! I think each year it can't get any better but it always does. It will be nice for me to hear the Hanley's again. By the way, has Fred invested in a 18 wheeler to bring all that stuff? Laughing Just kidding, come on down or up for this show. the price is right. See ya there!

Looking forward to a great weekend of pickin and friendship. We will have several CDs for sale. Our new Gospel CD " The Message" PLUS rhythm tracks, The Jazzabillies, Live at Crickets and our Christmas CD.
PLUS!!!! we will have copies of the brand new Dave Owens CD " Timeless Voices of the Dogwoods" This is a great country project that I co-produced with Dave and played on. It was recorded at our recording studio in Camdenton. It features songs from Missouri artists and writers. And also features a couple of Missouri folks by the name of Leona Williams and Ferlin Husky.
See you all there. It's gonna be a hoot!!!!

The Gospel CD that Scotty mentioned is a 'must have'! We've used several selections on our broadcast, steelradio.com, and also we listen to it for our own enjoyment here at home. Scotty's a great talent and this project is very unique. I've never heard one done just like this. Be sure and pick up your copy of this 'gospel CD' at Baxter Springs this weekend.

Hey, Fred, I got a call from Randy Stewart and he's got something different lined up for the barbeque this time. My mouth is watering already with anticipation. It's gonna be a delightful weekend of music, fellowship, and great food!

I have heard nothing but good things about this show and have wanted to go for a long time.
Scott, I know for a fact someone sent you an email a few days ago asking about your picking schedule of shows where he might go and hear and meet you. Your gospel CD prompted this.
Since he received no reply he assumed of course the obvious.
No matter you can usually sooner or later find a clue or two here on the forum.
This week end

We are excited about getting the show kicked off tomorrow. Glad to see everyone else is just as excited as we are.

Scotty, Randy said that better be on the list if you want a burger and some smoked chicken. LOL

Scotty, it isn't hard to find Baxter Springs. You don't have to go down to Mansfield to start like you did when you and Ronnie went to Cape a couple of years ago. Anyway, good luck to you in Kansas.
