Great meeting, great crowd. Eric Corgey and David Dunn played their first time at this meeting. Glad to have you guys with us. Jody Sanders and Jim Saunders gave a short teaching segment on the use of scales and the C pedal.

The new player segment went well as did the JAM. Billy Phelps was our featured player, and did he play. W0W!!!!! Billy was backed by the Billy Phelps Sound Track Band with Billy on vocals and steel. The band : Igor and Elaine Gondeson on drums, Gene Brogdon and Patty Phelps on Bass, we had an excellent guitar player Mel Stephen who is also a good steel player. Billy, Gene, and Patty on vocals. Thanks to Waymon Moore for furnishing the refreshments. A special thanks to Billy and Patty for all they do to keep our club operating. No meeting in July. The next meeting will be the first Sunday in August. Thanks to everyone who attended. See you in August. Jody, Billy, and Patty.

Jody, Thank you for creating the idea of this club. It was a modest beginning in Conroe on meeting number 1, but it's grown dramatically! Your idea was to promote the instrument and yesterday you had a great turn out of amatuers, like myself, and the seasoned pros. What can I say about Billy!! He is second to NO ONE, including the headliners, like, Hughey, Emmons, etc. Billy's style and creativity is a joy to watch and listen to. His vocals are likewise great. If Billy chose to tour, he'd be on the national stage.
Thanks to you, Billy, and Patty.

Jody, Billy, Patty, thanks for your determination to keeping the club going. I had a fun time and am looking forward to the next meeting in August. The guitar player was Mel Stephen from Vidor Texas. He is a very good steel player also. He has a vintage black mica S-10 MSA. I am trying to convince him to bring it to the next meeting.

What a great day for pickin'; you can't say enough about Billy Phelps. He is second to none!!!
Thanks to all of the players that came, including the new one's. A special thanks to Billy, Patty and Jody for keeping it going.
There was Jim Saunders, James Cross and Jim Alexander.
By the way Jody Burl; I'll answer to Jim, but the name is Tommy. I will remind you of this you ole' rascal (just kidding).
See you all in August..........

Sorry about that Tommy. As Jim Reeves once said, "All steel guitar players have brain damage". Once again, he was proven right. Jody.

Jody; all is for given if this is what is causing steel players to have this problem.
But, I always thought that this is called, "daime brammage"!!!!

I forgot to mention how nice it was to see Leon . He has had some health problems and it looks like he is doing real good. Hopefully by August, Leon will be ready to pick with us again. Hang in there Leon. Jody.
