Heading for FL in Nov and would like to find some steel playing in the Leesburg, FL area and maybe do a little pickin & grinnin myself.
If it ain't got steel it ain't real,
country that is. |

Thanks Jack, I'll be there. I play a little, but I just love the steel. I'll be new to FL, so maybe you can point out some of the highlights and good eating joints and good steel guitar music. |

Say "Hello" to entire Lake County for me! I lived in Leesburg and other environs for a spell. My Dear Wife will be relocating me (due to her profession) back to Florida in the near future. I plan to look up those Good Guys and Gals I've heard about in the FSGC.
Maybe we can meet up in a 'Hurricane Shelter' some day! ; -}
Good luck,
