I'm moving to Bradenton and wondered if there are any steel players in the area? Maybe get together sometime and pick or a lesson every now and then or someone I can catch playing somewhere?
Thanks,

They have the Manasota Steel Guitar Club and are looking for people to pick at their jams. Third Tuesday of each month (except December).
http://manasotasteelguitarclub.com/
We also have a monthly steel guitar jam, 2nd Wednesday of each month at 5:30. Its a little far but not too far as the Manasota club people often come up. Catfish Johnny's Restaurant in Lake Panasoffkee (3 miles west of I75, exit 321 - CR470).

I am in Spring Hill, and play regularly around the Tampa area with one of the better classic country bands. PM me & let me know when you will be here & will send you our gig schedule.
One thing to keep in mind...the bands & musicians here are, for the most part, not at the level of professionalism & ability that they are up north, and gig pay is less than half of what it was 20 years ago up north; usually around $50 per man IF that. If I had it to do all over, I woulda gone to Texas. The "country" scene here is pretty pathetic, only clubs that have country are Legions,Amvets, VFWs,Mooses, etc. _________________ A couple D-10s,some vintage guitars & amps, & lotsa junk in the gig bag. |
