I want take this opportunity to thank all those special, wonderful people of Ireland whose help was so much appreciated by Leslie and I. The committee for inviting us, the great musicians for supporting us, and an audience from all over the world. It made a dream come true and we are so greatful. We'll be talking to many of them by e-mails in the very near future. I know many of the steelers have made the trip to Ireland and found the same great response from wonderful people. It was my first trip to Ireland, but "Shant be me last!" Ron & Leslie Elliott |

Hi Ron and Leslie,it was a pleasure to have both of you at our Festival. I hope you enjoyed your short stay in our small green land, as we enjoyed having you, and your magic touch on the steel guitar. Leslie it was great to hear all the stories of your days at the Sho-Bud factory. Look forward to seeing you both in Dallas.......Ted |
