For those of you who have attended any of these steel guitar shows, you have noticed that the flyers, and programs, always state
"schedule subject to change". With that in mind, I hate to inform you that, due to unforseen circumstances, Jimmie Crawford and Bucky Reid will not be able to do the "2002 Steel Guitar Celebration" However, on a much happier note we were fortunate enough to get the great Russ Hicks confirmed. Russ is, one of the best steel guitarist I have ever heard
and along with his wife Laney's vocals,
presents a great performance. See ya at the show.
