Add me too !!!

( I think you have a hot product there )

Thanks Mick, Nice little song. I really like your site., especially the C6 stuff. It’s really given me material to learn new ways of playing that I wouldn’t otherwise be thinking of. I really liked the Jobim material (Wave). I think a lot of Jobim songs would go well with the C6 neck. Any chance of ...

Mick Jagger's a Traitor !!! He said he was singing only for us here in El Paso..... I'm guessing when they were in Central Texas they sang the BOB WILLS IS STILL THE KING number. I saw them in El Paso last Friday night and they sang the Marty Robbins song "EL PASO." Right after they sang L...

From my seats...I'd say a black one. Seriously, I was too far back to get a real good view of it. It did have like 7 foot pedals hooked up to it, although I don't think he was planning on playing too many Emmonsesque C6 runs !!! Stones style steel is a little different from what we're used to done h...

Saw the Rolling Stones last night in El Paso. Great show. At one point, on LET IT BLEED, they brought out a pedal steel that Ron Wood played maybe 1 or 2 licks on right about the time they sang this verse: I was dreaming of a steel guitar engagement When you drink my health in scented jasmine tea Yo...

I'm putting my 2 cents on Dripping Springs !!

I'm interested....

Jimmy,

You might try looking under the spelling MIDNIGHT IN OLD AMARILLO.

I think Buddy Emmons had it on one of his sets (We're steel swingin'?)

Anyway, if you search under that spelling, you might have better results.

Good luck,
David H.

If anyone comes up with something for C6, that would be greatly appreciated also !!!

One great way that I've found to improve your ability to read standard notation is to get one of those software programs where you can write out something in standard notation and then play it back at various speeds. (The particular one that I have is called Cakewalk and runs for around $40 at Best ...

It's amazing the little treasures you find from hanging out here...

Thanks Mick...Cool link.

PS: Love those C6 tabs.

Is it my imagination, or is this missing the last note as it resolves into D ?

That reminds me of a guy I saw at a songwriters showcase night in Austin one time. He had one song where he set all the controls to 10. It was called the "Chainsaw song."

I never heard of him after that....

"Lloyd Green and his Steel Guitar" is available on CD. Just go up to the top of this page and click on CD's and Tapes.

ATTN: MANUFACTURERS Here's your chance to grab the future by the horns. Here's what we need: 1. One neck for the PSG that has some type of universal tuning that gives you the best of the E9 and C6 worlds. 2. The other neck the pedabro neck, or similar. Something that gives you a dobro sound with ped...

I was learning some parts off of some Tracy Lawrence songs (in particular, If the World had a front porch) and the dobro part sounds like he's making some steel licks. I know Sonny Garish has done the steel and dobro on alot of Tracy Lawrence's stuff. Does he play pedobro too ? Speaking of Pedobros....

I just received my tab book from Tom himself.
83 pages, 80 of which are music and tab. Good stuff.

I think Tom's E-mail is posted earlier in this thread.

Get a double neck, tell them it's really 2 instruments, and demand to get paid twice as much.

Ask anyone around Buda, Texas and you'll know exactly who Jimmy Day was. He definately left his mark, on and off the steel guitar.

Thanks for the inspiration Jimmy.

John,

Thanks for the info. There's no one that should get the sale more than the player that did the work.

Checks in the mail to Mr. Brumley. Again, thanks for the info.

Does anyone have a Tom Cattin' tab book that they would be willing to sell me ?

Apparently, they are no longer available through Tom Bradshaw or Bob.

Please reply here or to my E-mail at:

Thanks !!

I might be missing the boat here, but IMHO shouldn't entertaining your audience be part of the equation ?

Kevin, You can find the lyrics and chord progression of that song at the COWPIE song corral (SEE LINK BELOW). Several people have their versions there, some better than others. http://www.roughstock.com/cowpie/songs/ The little hook in the middle of the song goes from Bm to D and I get it at the 10t...

Well...the only comment that I can add was the time I was playing a real hot 8 measure break. I thought to myself "What did I just do? That sounded real cool" Big Mistake...A few minutes later my opportunity came around to do it again. This time I was trying to analyze what I was doing and...

Hey Don, I bought a steel from you several months ago. (One of Robbie Turner's old ones). Just want to mention that it sounds great and I wasted no time putting it to work. Although it wasn't the only or main selling point, the audio clip definately caught my attention. I looked at and listened to s...
