For Rob Haines: Steel players get ALL the chicks!

Post by Todd Weger »

Rob - love your avatar picture. :)

Love the concept of Trayler Parker and the Propane Tanks. I'm sure you get a certain amount of flak from the 'purists,' but who cares? When your website said "bluegrass with drums...," I was a bit worried, but then seeing the pic with a drummer playing with brushes, and just snare and kick, it made total sense. About as much drums as I like to hear in an ensemble, actually, unless it's surf.

:)

Would love to hear that band live sometime. I have to come up to Tennessee from Florida in the next month or so (not sure when yet). Is there a club where I can hear y'all play?

Whoops... AGAIN with the wrong button!

Sorry for the 'NEW' post to another thread. I get distracted, and then I hit the NEW button, instead of the REPLY button.

My meds...

Post by Todd Weger »

I haven't taken my meds yet, as I haven't gotten them from Nurse Ratched!

:P

You did just remind me that I need to take my Prilosec.

Oh yes, by the way, the T8 still sounds and plays great! I don't really play it out anymore, since I've been taking the waaaaaay more portable frypan steels, but sure do love playing it at home.

:)

Trayler Parker and the Propane Tanks will be appearing at Norm's River Roadhouse (Nashville)on March 28, then again in the afternoon on April 19.

It's quite a challenge to play steel with a bluegrass group, but sometimes we straight ahead grass without the drums and I play mandolin. Check out Trayler's video on YouTube:
