Joe, maybe some of the ladies. But, you need to keep your clothes on.

I only caught the last 25 minutes of todays show and missed seeing Joe. I would like to know who was playing the BMI steel behind Randy Newman (band ws called Ozark Jubilee, I think). Randy played Danny Boy on the violin and they had the steel too far up in the mix (I know, I know... It can never be too loud), and he was overpowering the violin at times. It was a good thing this time. This man was playing some awesome stuff. They should have just turned the violin off. Anyone know who he is?

It's always nice to see Becky Schlegel (sp?) on the show. Her voice makes my hair stand up. She sure is purrtee too.

I caught the first part and the last part, and you're right, that was some awesome steel on Danny Boy. I don't know who he was but he also had an awesome beard. At the start of the show Joe was doing his laundry, I guess, he had a wash board and was cooking on it, even took a solo. What a picker!

Joe,
I love to watch the show too and I am a fan of your steel playing. You always look so relaxed and I know that it must be a nightmare playing for so many different singers in one show.

I also noticed it seems to me that you have a unique way of holding your bar. If my eyes do not deceive me, it seems that you hold the bar out more with your fingers rather than more of a "cupped" grip that I'm accustomed to.

I would be intersted to know how that came about. Did it naturally feel more comfortable when you were learning steel, or did someone turn you on to that particular way of holding it? Very interesting.

God bless,
Bryan

Farris...anytime you get up this way in Polar Bear country......stop on by!
Bryan...I don't know how that happened. Just bad technique, maybe...... It feels looser, like I have better control (sometimes), but I haven't really thought about it much.
Thanks.
Joe

Joe,
If that's "bad technique" could you send me a bag full of it down south!!!

That's the best "bad" I've ever heard!

I hope to get up there to see you guys sometime. Great show, keep up the good work.

Bryan

Click here to see if you can identify the player of the BMI Keyless. I tuned in too late to capture the good close~up of Joe Savage! Maybe next time!

Bruce has been working hard down there in Branson for all these years. He should let someone else have a few of the gigs for a while. It was nice to play with him when he came up to Sandstone.
Thanks,
Joe
