Would anyone be interested in a web site specifically for hosting pedal steel songs by us regular players?
I wouldn't mind hosting such a site on my own comercial site. Or if there's enough interest, I'd even consider a dedicated site for the purpose.
My idea is to post .mp3 files of "us guys" playing whatever songs. You could send me your own .mp3 files, or a cassette tape of your playing which I could convert to .mp3.
Anyone interested?

| What about playing songs we didn't write and didn't buy a license for? That might be sticky. [This message was edited by Jim Phelps on 02 August 2005 at 09:56 PM.] |

I think there's a way to do this for instructional purposes. I suppose if some tablature was included, it could be considered an educational site. Also, I'm a teacher so I am an educator by trade.
Still, the original question remains. Anyone interested in submitting some of your playing? I could link the .mp3 files to tablature. Original tunes would be welcome.
I had also considered something like a monthly newsletter via email. So there would be no cost or at most a very minimal cost to receive it.

Well, all I need is for folks to send me some of their playing. Either .mp3 or a cassette or CD or whatever. If you can't convert it to .mp3, I will do it.

I would definately agree this would be a fun idea to develop. Although I've been trying to get people to send me in their songs and demos to play them on my Steel guitar podcast, only Jim Phelps was kind enough to let me use his music. Nobody else sent anything in...  I don't know if this means people don't want to share their music, or simply think my podcast sucks...!
Anyway, I would really like to see this happen. If you need any help, I also have server space, time, and motivation to help make it happen.
