| Well it has came and gone now . But i must say this was the best yet . ''WOW'' did these guys play great . Our Friday evening players did a good job and had fun with each other . After the evening program was over i asked if anyone would like to jam after some food was consumed and i had a full stage of players .We jammed for about two hours . On Saturday we opened with Mr.Wayne Hetzler and ended the day with The Amazing Grace Praise Band . Brother Del Grace wasn't feeling well at all but still did a great job with his group as always . Herby Wallace ,Sonny Curtis , Joe and Gary Adams ,Phil Perry ,and Wayne Hobbs these guys were awsome along with Wayne Hetzler and Del Grace and the group . Sonny wanted to sing but i wouldn't let him !!!! (just kidding ). The backup band did a great job also . I want to thank each and everyone of the musicians and also all the helpers for a job well done . Thanks to Rick Troyer for being a part of the event . Thanks to Don Burrows for bringing some of his steel guitars down . This was my first time meeting Mr. Wayne Hobbs , he is a gentleman and a great player . He almost made me sweat watching him play I'll Fly Away . He adds a new dimension to ''fast '' . Again thanks gang for making the ''2006 '' Jubilee a great one . We are already planning for the next one . Best regards and God bless you all . Gary .

This was one of the most enjoyable shows I've attended. Gary treated us all like family, hospitality was second to none. Great pickers and music, what more could you ask for? The staff musicians were a pleasure to work with. We'll do it again next year.

To those of you who didn't know,I have been laying out for a while due to personal reasons. Gary, my friend, you do a great job. I had a great time helping you out this year. Sorry I had to bail out a little early,but I was wore out. I am so glad it was so successful. See, I told you that people will come to hear good music,especially good "Jesus" music.Contrary to popular belief, You can never get too much Jesus ! BTW...tell Eddie I enjoyed jamming with him and the he can make a bad piano player sound like a million bucks! I had a wonderful time.

Brother Gary,
You sure know how to throw a party.(SMILE)I enjoyed myself greatly even though I didn't feel so great.
I agree with P.Perry,you are the greatest host ever.Your hospitality is second to none and your supporting cast are the greatest bunch of guys around.The Praise Band sang your praises all the way back to Toledo.You have proven to be a man of character and integrity, these qualities are tough to find anymore.I truly see the Christ that lives in you.We love you,your lovely wife, Larry Cole and all of the fine musicians and people of Columbus, Ohio. Pray for us as we pray for you.-Del Ray |

| A big thankyou to Gary and the O.S.G.A. . My wife and I had a great time . Everyone was so friendly and eager to please . The music was terrific ! Praising the Lord on instruments of ten strings . Just like the Psalms says . 12 string players have a special place too (ha ha ) . Thanks again for allowing us to be a part of the show . Rick |

You and Patty did a wonderful job getting this show together. I think it was the best one yet....Barbara and I had a wonderful time. All of the players were terrific. I really enjoy the time we got to spend with Herbie and Bunny and Rick and his wife Jean. They are all great people. We saw and talked to a lot of our friends that we had not seen for a while. They are too numerous to mention, I'm afraid I would leave someone out. It was really great to see my friend Wayne Hobbs. Thanks again for a great show and a wonderful day.....

| Annette and I would like to thank Gary and Patty also for a great weekend. I can't imagine all the hard work and planning that went into this event. Cody is enjoying his new guitar(thanks Kenny). Hope you're feeling better Del Ray. Enjoyed the seminar with Herby. This was the first time hearing Wayne Hobbs and was very impressed with his picking.Great job Gary and Patty. |

| Thanks everyone for all the kind words ,but without all of you it would have never been .You guys are the ones that made it a great time and also a fun time . Just having great players to be with us would have been enough but you guys played your hearts out and for that i'm very grateful . We will do it again and hope that everyone of you will be available . As i said we are already thinking of how we can top this one . Thanks again everyone , Gary . P.S. Yes i think we can make a place for a twelve string player in Gods band ! I forget which Psalms that is ! G.P. |

Good, I thought I was going to have to go back to a 10 string.
Gary and Patty, you guys put on a great show/jam.
I was honered that my buddy Phil Perry asked me to play guitar with him, and to get to play guitar for H.O.F.er Herbie Wallace was a real treat. I was a little scared at first to back Herbie up, he makes you work.
I am looking forward to the next show. Maybe I will even get to practice some for the next one.

| Hello Gary, even though I could not stay long I had a good time, really a great show, when ever I get my new steel, maybe then I will play on your show or at least after I get familiar with it when I get one. |

| Hi Rick Troyer . Just so everyone will know . The Gospel Steel Guitar Jubilee is something that i do . We try to keep the O.S.G.A. seperate from my Gospel events . I always try to let everyone know that the O.S.G.A. isn't a christian organization but an organization with christian members along with those that aren't . Thanks so much for all your help ,it was great to have you and your wife with us . Best regards and we hope to see you at your ''Celebration'' 2006 . Gary . |
