I'm hoping a few of my friends will join us at the Fiske. I've talked to Bobby Lee and Pete Walthall, and Pete said he would talk to Jack Matthews to see if he would come. So maybe the line up is growing.
I hope we can get a bunch of players down there this year. Harold and Betty and Country Jack are good folk ,so let's don't let em down steel players.
If you can make this show, please sign in here on the forum, or let Billy or somebody know your coming so we can get an idea of how many steel players will be there.

Hey Terry, Billy &Jack: I'm really looking forward to this one. I'm trying to get Prentis Takewell of Monroe to sign up to play. Also Jimmy Lewis. Hope Ken Rollins & maybe Danny too can make it. Maybe Jerry Lee Newberry & Austin. Wouldn't it be something if Buck Grantham & Miss Mitzy showed up.
See you the 14 th. Andy H. |

Yes Terry, still got the black Emmons & the brown ProII Shobud. Both have a pretty good sound, play so easy you hardly know when you push a pedal or knee lever. Thinking about bringing both7 maybe sell one of them. Don't play enough anymore to justify keeping 12 Steel Guitars. See you in Oak Grove.

Posted 28 Mar 2007 7:35 pm what makes bob holley........er, uh, holler....
|
|
i did hear from bob holley.
he will be there.
he is the brother of original buckeroo,the late doyle holley.
not only is he on the money of oklahoma swing singers
he is quite the historian of an era, coming from a family of entertainers from out of the dust bowl to the bakersfield sound and all that has come since.
among the ones that paved the way. the real deal/ |

| WOW It's gettin' closer and I don't have a steel guitar. HOWEVER, I have a brand new U 12 Fessenden ordered and I sure hope it arrives in time. Andy, Terry, Jack and all other pickers and singers come on down! What about ol' Brother, I am sure he will be there too. See you at the Fiske April 14. |

Hey Yommy: Sure hope you can make it. We always have a lotta fun & play some prwtty good music at the Fisk. Haven't seen a list of confirmed pickers yet, but I know several that have told me they are going that can really git 'er done. Hope to see you there. By the way, Nobody's gonna throw any steel guitar down. Don't think Garth Brooks will be there.
