We have just completed our meetings for the 2018 show, which will be held March 16th, 17th and 18th, 2018. We also want to apologize for any inconvenience in regard to our initial thoughts that our show might've been canceled.
We have added on a team that will oversee a lot of the scheduling duties to produce a great show. More details in a few days. Thank you to all!

| It' Don't get no better than this show. As we all get a little older things change. I can see where health has become an issue for people on the committee. Thanks to the people that stepped up to help out. Also thanks to Sue who has done the majority of the work in the past, Along with Craig , Mark, Mike, Lynette, And the back up band. I hope it will last another ten years. Al Andersen |

Thank you Erv, Lefty, Paul, and Al. With any successful endeavor, it creates a need for more assistance, and we appreciate all those who offered to help, and as Lefty knows from the Notheast Iowa Steel Guitar Show, volunteers are like gold to us. Erv's impressive inventory of tablature adds a great visual over the weekend. Paul, it would be good to see you again. Thanks Al, for recognizing us, we may be beat up..but we're not beat, lol.

| Glad to hear the good news. I know how difficult it is to put together a great show. Having helped create the Minnesota Steel Guitar Association and working to showcase our talent here, it was always a hard job to get the work done. Working for a year to make the best show you can, demanded time and effort to pull all the pieces together. It is a work of love, with little or no remuneration to the organizers for their hard work. Words of praise are nice to hear, but sometimes, a monetary reward is welcomed. No one is in this business to make a lot of money, but money is a factor in putting together a great show. It costs money for the venue, the musicians, the lighting, the food, the vendors, and many other incidental elements that no one knows about. I sincerely hope that this show will continue for many more years, and that we keep our support up for these volunteers who devote so much of their time to bring us the very best. Best of luck to Sue, Craig, Mark, Dale, Mike and Lynette, and to all those who aid in the smallest way. |
