Thanks for posting all that great material, Jerry.
Tommy White was on the program 39 years ago? Sheesh! I was seven years away from my first steel guitar in 1974.
Love the duelling "Sho-Bud Showcase" and "Emmons Entertainment" segments from 1976. |

Glad you enjoyed those, Frank. I knew I hadn't been saving those all these years for nothing. Anyone else wanting to post early convention programs, photos, memorabilia, etc., feel free. _________________ Jerry Jones |

I have some of those old programs filed away. 1974 was the first year I went, went again in '76, '78, and '80. Due to work and other commitments, I didn't make it again until 1990. I attended all but a couple of years up until 2010. I may go again in '14, who knows. _________________ Darvin Willhoite
MSA Millennium, Legend, and Studio Pro, Reese's restored Universal Direction guitar, a restored MSA Classic SS, several amps, new and old, and a Kemper Powerhead that I am really liking. Also a Zum D10, a Mullen RP, and a restored Rose S10, named the "Blue Bird". Also, I have acquired and restored the plexiglass D10 MSA Classic that was built as a demo in the early '70s. I also have a '74 lacquer P/P, with wood necks, and a showroom condition Sho-Bud Super Pro. |

78 was the first ISGC that I attended.
But I remember 1972, when I worked at Little Roy Wiggins' "Music City" music store across the street from Tootsies on lower Broadway. Scotty came in the store and was promoting his steel show. Too bad I wasn't able to attend the early shows. |

I see in 1978 that one of my mentors that was a big influence to me played back then. Mr. Jess Hurt from Toledo, Ohio. I used to go down to Toledo just to hear him play at the Sherwood Inn. I used to sit at the table closest to him while he was playing. When ever he played a certain lick, that he figured I would like, he would look up at me and smile. Jess has been gone now for some time. Never forget him. |
