Nick; When you see Tommy Cash, give him my regards! I haven't seen him for quite a few years, but; once in a while we meet on the street in Nashville. I've known him for many years and just remind him that I'm a friend of Jim Lebak, now from Troy, NY

Connie, sorry I'll miss you. Hopefully you can get up again later.

We're getting a lot of support for the backup band. Sue Bondz will be there to play bass, John King will be there to play bass, George Baseley will be there for drums and maybe Tony Sellman. Lee Holloway for rhythm guitar if needed and possibily other guitar pickers. With all that talent it should be a great jam. Thanks to everyone.

For those that remember George ONeil (and his wife Marion who sings) from upstate NY who is a snowbird and wondering why he hasn't been at the jams, George has some medical problems and they went back north to get them taken care of.

Also, for those that don't read the club e-mails, sorry to report that Tom Murphy's wife Dottie has passed away. I don't have any info on exactly what happened other than I know she was taking chemo for lung cancer.

It sounds like we'll have a great jam! Connie, it will be good to see you again after so long :D With you on one side and if I can get the other, maybe we can keep Ernie under control. You know how wild and crazy he gets at these jams :wink:
Lee Holloway said he'd help carry my gear as I'm not allowed to lift anything yet.
Looking forward to seeing all my friends next Wednesday,Good Lord willing.

Wow! What a jam we had last night.
We had standing room only at Catfish Johnny's and all the players did a fine job.
I also want to thank the band for without them we would be playing to BIAB tracks. Thanks guys and gals.

I'll echo what Don said. I wasn't supposed be there last night but our show got cancelled.

So I don't forget anyone, I won't "name names", just say it was great to see those that have been among the missing attend and pick.

The meeting/jam report has been sent and posted on our club web site www.floridasteelguitarclub.com

Thanks again for all the support, from the Steelers, the audience, the backup band and to Catfish Johnny for the free use of his facility.
