This was my first time at St Louis and It was wonderful.I've Never been so blessed, impressed, and convinced this is the best sounding instrument in the world. The artist were all magnificent from young to more mature. I have an old hero and a new hero, Big E and Sara Jory. King ang Queen.
The Russless portion was beyond description.
Russ should get an award for the best sport.
Joe Wright was great and hilarious. What a talent.Herby Wallace should have the most courageous award. Thanks Herby and continue to recover. Met an old friend and his wife,Been 41 years since our days in Vietnam,Jim Florence and wife Anne. Met hundreds of players I had seen names on the forum and got to put faces to them. One of the #1 experiences in my life. Thanks to Bill Cook and Tyler Hall from the ASGA for it will be unforgettable. A fantastic Convention.

We enjoyed St. Louis this year also. We would like to thank Scotty for letting us be a part of the show Saturday morning. Jerry and Austin had fun playing. Doc, I hope you and your wife can go again. You always hear something good.

| Dr. Rickles, We enjoyed you and Jim Florence stopping by and meeting us at the John Coop booth. It was a pleasure meeting so many fine folks I know on the forum, and finally meeting them in person! This was my first time to the St.Louis show and WOWW what a fine show. Scotty, my hats off to you for organising such a big show, and having it come off "top shelf".

Yeah, What a great time. Dr Rickles was "Ricky" back in those Vietnam days. What a thrill to see so many old friends. Missed seeing some who were conspicuous in their absence. To name a few, Junior Night, Bobby Bowman, Janet Lynn, and so on. My wife {Annie} and I are both 74 years old, but with a little luck we'll see you next year. And maybe some of you in Baxter Springs Kansas next month.
