Thank you Albert and the TSGA for inviting me to the show. The Dallas weekend is one of my favorite conventions. I had a great time talking with friends, hearing the music, and soaking up the Texas vibe. The super-jam with Hal Rugg was a personal and emotional highlight. I'm glad that the show was well-attended and another success.

Chuck, I didn't get a chance to say hi at this one.
I ALWAYS enjoy your sets. Your selection of music along with your excellent playing always holds my interest. You perform quite a variety of great tunes and your addition of "Little Ricky" is the icing on the cake. "Caladonia"....oh yeah!  |

And just when you thought you had heard it all played on steel guitar, Chuck comes up with Ave Maria. That was definitely different, and I enjoyed it.

Chuck you have made the steel enjoyable to so many. Your smooth and exciting approach draws the listener to really want to hear. I believe her name is Ms Yates(?) did a remarkable solo to your backup. Thanks for making Texas for your set.
Sincerely, Bob |

Mr. Lettes, I ditto what Mr. Strum said. As I have made know to you, I especially liked "Ave Maria". Your arrangement, delivery, etc. made it so special. I could really feel our Lord's presence while you were playing that. I wish that you could tab what you played during your solo in the middle and post it in the tab section on the forum. I would relly benifit from it. Keep up the good work. It was a pleasure meeting you at the Dallas show and look forward to seeing you next year.

| Chuck - It was good to see you in Texas. Keep the pedal alive in Colorado, and I'll do my best to keep it alive in New Mexico. I plan to do some pedal steel workshops this Summer in Albuquerque. Hopefully, this will influence more players in our area. |
