Great player! He played for years with Jesse Dayton at the Broken Spoke on Thursday’s in Austin. Definitely has his own style!

Thanks for posting Paul! Think I have read you have used a rat pedal when you have played distortion steel. Is that correct?

Looks like we have a winner! And it does not surprise me it would be Pete Drake that did it! Thanks Pete.

Terri Hendrix and Lloyd Maines was on FB live tonight and Lloyd was playing and talking pedal steel. Terri had a good question, who was the first Rock&Roll pedal steeler? Lloyd said he remembered Sneaky Pete. But was there a distortion player before him. Lloyd is a great Bosstone player!

The Texas Connection shows were filmed at Fiesta Texas in San Antonio by the guys from ACL.

Hank is one of the most underrated steel players there is!

Phil, enjoyed meeting you this weekend. Glad Wally put your amps thru their paces, sounded great! T.G.

Facebook with my good friend Glenn Fukunaga, he is playing bass for the Chicks on this tour. No steel player.

Thanks Greg, that website is way cool!

Can someone direct me or explain the 4th Franklin pedal to me. What does it do?

Phillip it is a bosstone, seen it in the video.

Herb just got on the forum and seen this, hope for you all the best and a speedy recovery. Hate that you will miss Dallas. Take care.

Eric,
You can go to www.lloydmaines.net and find out about Lloyd's gear. I have the black Mica Mullen SD-10 that he had from 1998-2010. He just got a brand new Red Lacquer Mullen G2 SD-10.

1983 and I think this is after he was a member of PPL. He was on ACL with them too!

Bobby Rules!!!

One of the great ACL. This is the first time I had ever saw Vince Gill. As you see he has his shirt tail out. I thought what the nerve this guy has! Then they played My Baby Thinks She's a Train, then I said if I could play guitar like that I would have my shirt tail out too!
