Everyone had a great show!! My favorite highlights were:

-Bill Ferguson and Tim doing "Kansas City"
-Tommy Dodd doing "Ode to Billy Joe" - with all his distortion, I affectionately refer to it as the Pepto Bismol song.
-Shorty Smith singing his original song about the RING.
-Homemade Vegetable soup and cornbread - Thanks to Randy and Theresa McDonald!!
-Larry Sasser just being Larry Sasser!!!What an amazing player and inspiration to the steel guitar community!!!
Thanks to all who drove the distance, went the distance, played the distance, and made a financial contribution to the association. And THANKS AGAIN TO THE wonderful STAFF BAND!!! WOW, do they have talent!!

I was especially proud of the players we had Sunday. Not only are they great friends, but great musicians as well. Thank you all for sharing your talent with us. I thanked them all day long, but that still wasn't enough praise for our staff band. Woody Ledford and Johnny Thomas on guitar, Wayne Smith on bass, Wayne Stowers and Jim Hartley on drums...these guys are our "A" team players!!! Herby is really coming along, and I was proud to be one of his "roadies" for the day. You're welcome back any time, my friend. And our very own Larry Sasser, what can you say. He proved why he was so successful in Nashville. He plays sooooo smooth and tasteful, you could sit and listen all day. There was no doubt that he deserved the "Legend Member" award that he received. Way to go Larry! Again, thanks to all who attended, and let's get behind our new officers and support them as they take the Georgia Steel Guitar Association to the next level.
Regards,
Roger Crawford, President(for 3 more weeks!)
