| Will do Dick. I met Terry over 30 years ago in Indy J. We jammed a Music Headquarters during the day and picked at Cowboys on 16th across from the 500 track at night. I had fun trying to keep up with Terry. He is a great guy. |

I got to set up right next to Terry Bethel last Sunday afternoon and jam with him and several other steel players at the Ozark Steel Guitar Association steel show along with a truly great 3 piece backup band. Terry is so humble and gracious. It was a pleasure. He said he was leaving on tour with Mel Tillis this week.

Thanks Ben. George is an old Ham buddy of mine and we talk quite a bit on the 40 meter ham band if he isn't on the road.
Here's a backdoor shot of Terry's steel at one of the shows George invited me to.

| We weren't able to get to the Mel Tillis show today. I'm sorry I wasn't able to relay hellos' to George and visit with Terry. |
