Bill, it's shaping up to be one of our best shows ever!
By the way, you might be interested to know that, in addition to my Fulawka,I am the proud owner of a Carter S-10! Can you believe it??? AND, our friend John LeMaster, is the new owner of a Sho-bud LDG! John says this guitar has the best tone and clarity of any He's ever owned, and We know He's owned many of the best! I wouldn't be surprized if John "brought it to the show in May. I,ve heard and played it and I have to agree with John. This guitar sounds "AWESOME"

Bill, I plan to bring my Sho Bud LDG to the May show.
Lonnie's Carter has both E's on the right knee, just like your guitars. It looks just like new, too.
Looking forward to seeing and hearing Joe Wright again. What a player and what an entertainer! Hope we have a good turnout for the NFSGA Anniversary Show again this year.

Ben Odell, thanks for the message and the low-down on Larry Bullock. I'll be sure to give Him a
hard time". By the way, I've always wondered how "downtown" Agricola looked, but you answered with "beautiful", and I thank you. Wish you could be here for the music and "ribs". Take care, Lonnie

Joe, thanks for the invite. We'll try to get over there, not sure yet about the 5th, but hopefully soon. John told us great things about your show last time. John is not only a great musician, but a good friend and gentleman! Hope you can make it to our show! Thanks, Lonnie Portwood

Lonnie, you guys really 'hit a home run' with the 4th anniversary show for the North Florida Steel Guitar Association. I had a great time, as did members of my family that were able to attend.
It seemed to me that ALL the players were at the top of their game, so to speak. The staff band and the guest artists were really good. You, the officers of the club, the volunteers, and all the artists made it a big success. I see where you even had to go get some folding chairs in the afternoon, as it was a full house. That was great to see.
Thanks to all who made it possible,
John L.
