| Kirk, the moon was not in the seventh house. It was not the dawning of Aquarius. In other words, Phil won't be in Marshalltown, but hopefully in the future. |

I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to play the show due to a misplacement of my fingers. By the way I've been sounding as I practice, I must have someone else's fingers on my hand.Either that or Kirk bushwacked my picks last time we played together. I'm gonna have security there just so he don't get near my guitar and switch the pics. See you all there on the 2nd.

Your right Craig. It was fun and poor Vic and Van worked hard, and they were pretty tired by the time I left.
I hope this keeps going and we'll continue to put it on my calendar. Kudos to those who assisted them, the stage people were on the mark, didn't have to lift a finger. Thanks guys

| I agree w/ Roger. This was a fine, well organized show which takes lots of time, effort, and patience! Vic, Deb, and the production crew need to be recognized for their outstanding job in putting this event together. Hopefully this will be an ongoing show promoting steel guitar. The musicians and dance crowd certainly had a good time. ...lefty |
