I was watching "Cold Case" on CBS tonight, And in this episode,The detectives try to figure out who killed the lead singer in a small-time, three-piece, country music band. Was it the Pedal Steel Guitar player Who is a junkie ? or was it the Bass player who happens to be the brother of the...

Elvis costello's "Allison". At the time, the chord proggression seemed to be light years ahead of me. Maybe I should give it another chance after all this time....

Nice work as always Mark.

I love this song. Put me on the list also.
Thanks alot Erv.

Bob, you fixed my picture. Your a nice Guy! I always post them too big. I need to look and see how you did it.

I will get it figured out, And then we can all have a listen.

I would like to say once again that I didn't mean to be a smarta$$ or anything like that AT ALL. Please accept my apologies Andy, if they are applicable. Also, thank you all for enlightening me as to what MusicMatch is. (I really didn't know what it was to begin with)<font size="1" color=&...

I didn't mean any offence by my comments, I try to find every available excuse to use smilies.

No, I don't know What musicmatch is,but I will venture a guess that it's a file sharing utility that people use to share music over the net. Am I right? What do I win? http://steelguitarforum.com/biggrin.gif <font size="1" color="#8e236b"><p align="center">[This message...

Oh Darn! The file was too big for my hosting service. I guess I'll show you what I'm made of some other time.

I have tried to play the pedal steel for 5 or 6 or 7 years now, And I'm ready to let you hear what I'm made of. I make CD's on my computer for my father. He loves music and he likes that I make music for him. This song is off of the CD I made for him for Christmas. It's called California stars. <fon...

Honky-tonks! all the way.

I have a secret that I'm ready to share. I have been hiding it for a few months now.

I don't have an opinion as to how excactly
you should go about doing the article, but I will say you should do it. It would be alot more exposure for our beloved pedal steel guitar.
