Eddie's name has an "e" on the end.

When Mo does full band shows Eddie Lange is the steel player.

Last winter I bought a pair of lace-up roper style boots by Ariat. I don't remember the "model" name but they have a rubber-like sole and heel. I think they were made for working around stables. I think it's a good looking boot and has proved quite practical for the winter here in Minnesota.

I played bass for Joe for about a year and a half in the early '80's. Great singer, really great guy. We had a lot of fun along with playing some really great Country Music.

My wife Kathy and I were there also, That was our oldest son Eddie Lange playing steel for Josh. Great show!

T.G. has been at a club I play twice in the last year. Great show, great band, but no steel.

That is my amp that will be provided for you on Sunday. It's a Nashville not a Session. Cosmetically it's not so good, but it works just fine. Rollie's is a great place, and Rollie is a good guy. See you Sunday.

A friend of mine and I had the pleasure of doing the production for the Moe Bandy show on Dec. 13 at a club here in St. Cloud, MN. Moe and his guys did a fantastic job. They worked for 1 3/4 hours to a packed house, playing hit after hit. They are also some of the nicest guys we've ever had a chance...

There IS a 9:30 GOO show on Saturday nights. I know, because my son Eddie plays steel for Bill Anderson, and they work that show a lot. As to whether WSM broadcasts it, I don't know. If they don't, that's really too bad, but not really surprising considering the direction they have been taking latel...

I have been using a Mackie 808M on my smaller jobs for the last six years. We use it 3 - 4 times a month. It's self contained, lightweight and I think it sounds great. I think Mackie has updated it, but mine has two amps in it. 600 watts each at 2 ohms. I use one for monitors, the other for mains. I...

That would be Eddie Lange.(there is an "e" at the end of our name. Hello Craig). He is a great player, and not just because he's my oldest son. Eddie has been with Bill for almost 3 years, and really enjoys it.

I think it needs to be mentioned that at one time Hank Williams, Ernest Tubb, Porter Wagoner, Jean Shepard, Stonewall Jackson, ect... were all "NEW" singers on the Grand Ol' Opry. As I've said before, the Opry is a business, a big business, and the Opry's managment will do what it needs to...

A little over a month ago, I was in Nashville and had the opportunity to take in the Opry at the Ryman. It was the first time I had seen the Opry there, and it was a double pleasure because I got the chance to see my son Eddie, who has been playing steel with Bill Anderson for just about two years n...

One of the groups I work in just started using in-ear monitoring. Cost and flexibility of use was an issue. I went with a Behringer "Powerplay Pro-XL HA4700" headphone amp. $99.00 from Sweetwater Music. The Behringer has 4 channels, high & low EQ on each channel, a separate "line ...

That is the best idea I've heard in a long time. It makes perfect sense. That's also why it probably won't happen.

Over the Easter weekend my wife Kathy and I were in Nashville to visit our steel guitar playing son, Eddie. On Saturday the 7th, we went to the Country Music Hall Of Fame to see a program that was moderated by DJ Great Eddie Stubbs. The program was called "One More Time", and featured past...

I've had the pleasure of working a couple of shows and Steve's wedding in the past year with Joe. A great player, and a great guy. As far as that Mississippi Drifters outfit, and that Roadshow bunch goes, they bear watching, or at least listening to.

A friend of mine uses a Behringer BXL1800A. He says it's just great. I was in Nashville a little over a month ago and heard a guy playing a Behringer BX4210A and I thought the tone was right on. I know that there are many varied opinions about the quality and reliability of Behringer's gear, I don't...

Bill is celebrating his 45th anniversery on the the G.O.O. today. He will be on the GAC televised portion tonight at 7 central time. Bill Gaither bought the hour, so it's all gospel. Still a "Wild Weekend" for Whisperin' Bill and the Po' Folks.

Have a great show tomorrow. We are giggin', otherwise we would be there. I'm a bit of steel guitar fan you know.

The Bill Anderson Show will be in Sandstone MN today, Sunday, June 25th, at the Midwest Country Theater. My son, Eddie Lange, is playing steel with Bill. Tomorrow, June 26th, Bill and the guys will be at the Paramount Theater here in St. Cloud. Myself and my group, The Mississippi Drifters are openi...

Hi Bob -

Monday nights, Eddie Lange plays the Bluegrass Inn on Broadway from 8 - Midnight. Also, I think the Time Jumpers may be at the Station Inn. Have a good time in Music City. I usually do.
