After looking at hundreds of pictures of all you playing your Pedal Steel Guitars, I've got to tell you: no one looks cool playing a Pedal Steel Guitar.
Everyone looks like they are bent over their sewing machines.
How about posting some cool pictures of you playing? Is there such a thing?
Every time I see your profile pictures I want to order a suit with two pairs of pants.

Can somebody post that old black and white photo of Buddy playing the steel behind his back? I can't find it.

Well, that is pretty cool, but is that the best ya got? One old black and white photo?
Obviously, we need a contest.
Here is a proposal:
1. Post the coolest picture OF YOURSELF playing the steel.
2. I will donate $50 to the forum in the name of the person who posted the COOLEST photo of themselves.
Here are the rules:
1. At least 20 people have to post or no donation.
2. I get final decision on which is the coolest.
3. When no more entries are in, I will declare a winner and will send b0b $50 in their name.
Any takers, or are you all too scared, hiding behind the great Mr. E?

If it can be imagined, he's done it already. I believe that's Speedy West holding up the ironing board. Merci again, CrowBear! |

While nowhere near the "coolness" of any of the above,
I'll be the first to respond to Bill's request:

I looked thru recent photos and this is a cool as I can find, while at PSG.
(it's so much easier to look cool holding a Tele)

And Marino has my vote so far. |
