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.

I also work a weekly Tuesday (daytime)show at Catfish Johnny's. Our shows are every Tuesday starting the first Tuesday in November and run to the last Tuesday in April and is all traditonal country music. E-mail me for more info.

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,

Johnne Lee
