Very Happy Thanks for posting these photos Guy, I had to miss this one, so it was great to see all the heroes and friends in the photos. Glad Dee and Paul Carestia were there again, would have lover to hear them again, especially Dee's singing and playing.

Hey Chris,

Glad you liked the photos. Bill Tauson does a lot of this work, but I help a little.

I caught your steel set Saturday morning, as well as your many appearances backing things up on the 6-string. In both endeavors, you killed it! Great guitar work! Keep pickin' and grinnin', we love to hear you play!

Great photos. I see lots of Forum members, familiar faces. But... who is "Uncle Tony"? Confused Laughing

Thank you, Guy!

I am very pleased you caught my set, and liked it - always a bit nerve wracking, but Doug Livingston, Rick Schmidt, and Dan Range make me feel safe up there.

I feel lucky to asked to accompany some amazing steel players - I always have moments where I have to pay special attention to my job, since I’m so amazed by what they do

Hey b0b,

I hope someone else can address your question. While I do have the honor of meeting many of the artist we photograph at these shows, I have not had the opportunity to meet Uncle Tony. As you probably saw from the photos, he plays steel and fiddle, but I am afraid that is all I know.

b0b, I don’t really know Uncle Tony, but watched him playing fiddle and Mike Sigler on steel in the GFI room. They impressed me with their musicianship.
