Hey Steelers,
I just wanted to say Wayne is one fine steel player I had the pleasure to me him a few years back and can he move! Wayne is currently playing steel with the Great Jean Stafford in Australia and is planning a world tour with Jean which will include the U.S.A.
Wayne has toured with such people as Jean Stafford, Slim Whitman, Charley Pride, Frank Ifield, Daniel O’Donnell, Reg Lindsay, Nev Nicholls, Dr. Hook, Ray Kernigan, has worked shows with Wayne Horsburgh just to name a few and recorded with many major artists in Australia..
Don't miss a chance to hear him you won’t be disappointed

| Wayne, you DA MAN!!!! Fellow Forumites, words can't express my admiration for this man. He's a terrific steel player, a terrific dobro player, a terrific bass guitar player, and an all around great guy. I've been to his home up in Brisbane, and I was treated like a member of his family when I was there. He is my Aussie mentor, and I just hope that one day I will be somewhere close to his level of playing the pedal steel. Another one of the threads here have mentioned "world class steel players..." Well, Mister Appleby is definitely one of those, IMHO. For the non-Aussies on this site, if ya get the chance to visit this beautiful country, that visit will be incomplete unless ya get a chance to spend some time with this wonderful Australian gentleman. Trust me, he's the real deal!! Mike Kirkley, Sydney. |
