Well I'm sorry to say I don't think I will be making this show this year. My wife will be operated on for Breast cancer the 27th and will have 6 weeks of radiation. She comes first and the steel comes second.I don't think she will want to travel a little over 300 miles.We will see how she does and feels.She might just suprise me and feel up to it I don't know. It is a hard operation.

Tony,
Looking forward to seeing you and the R.I.Steel Club gang. Also, can't wait to hear Merle and Roger tear up the place. I was really knocked out by their playing at your show.

| I'm also looking forward to this years show. I was unable to be there last year so I'm kinda jonesing for a hefty dose of some great steel playing. I'll have a steel playing friend from Stockholm, Sweden staying with us while in the NYC area and he's REALLY looking forward to attending. He's even more starved for this kind of thing than we are here in the Northeast. It'll be great, ya'll come! Jon |

I am really looking forward to this great show again. I have played it several times in the past and this is one of the finest shows in the country. I must say that everything about it is strictly first class. The backup musicians are some of the finest I have ever worked with, so it is really a treat for me getting to work with them. They are very versatile and can play anything you want to play.
Thanks again Bob for inviting me back. I hope to see many of you there in November.

I have played this show a couple of times in the past. It is one of the finest shows I have ever had the opportunity to play. Great hospitality. The back up band is first rate. They can play it all.
