I can always hope can't I. I'm sure there are many players out there who would have fit in very nicely.
...wait a minute. Actually there was a part of the show I forgot to mention. The program said 'A Little Steel'
I didn't go to it because I didn't see it on the program until after it was over. They had scheduled the main event to overlap.

Hi William,
I played steel on 4 songs on Double Troubles new CD.
Assuming, of course, the Double Trouble on your list is the same Double Trouble that is a country group from Portland OR (I'm guessing it's a different band).

also...
My group will be playing at The Tractor Tavern in Ballard Friday, June 8. I think we are the first or second band. Stop down and say Hey if you get a chance.
