hi Erv - Nope, Herb notified us he had a conflict and couldn't do the show. So we are happy and proud to have Eddie Lange fill the headliner slot. I'm looking forward to seeing you at the show. |

This show is one of the best in the area. Lots of good players, a great ballroom with lots of room for listening, dancing, and chatting (or buying) from several vendors. Also, the Jump Start Academy players will be showing what they have learned. See you this weekend. Ron |

Great show this year Many, many great steel players.
I personally want to thank Lefty and all the crew for the honor to play the show again this year. We had a great time and especially glad to listen to Eddie Lang belt out some impressive steel numbers. Excellent choice for entertainer. Staff band did one heck of a job supporting everyone. They don't get the recognition they deserve for the many hours they put in. Thanks guys |

Board members and Associates thank all who contributed to making this year's show a huge success, including the fabulous Eddie Lange, the very capable Midwest artists, Scotty's presence and comments, the awesome house band headed up by Roger Miller, Kirk Dighton for the fine scheduling, steelers who participated in the Red Light Brigade, emcees, Kim Dighton and staff working the gate, and grips moving equipment on/off stage. And Russ, we totally agree about Eddie's superb steel playing.
Just a note about next year's show - due to a calendar conflict, the 2015 show will be one week earlier than normal, i.e., October 16-18. We hope everyone will mark their calendars. [/u][/i] |
