Hi Ken great job and you can count on Anna and I to be at the Fayettville Show. I should be able to do a little more as I'm spending every afternoon from 1:00 to about 5:00 practicing. It is to hot to go out so I will stay in and practice with CD back ups so I can get things together.That was a AWESOME SHOW and the next will also be GREAT.You can't get them any better than that.A bunch of nice guys and great pickers.

Hey Ken... The wife and I had a great time in the mountains and will head up to Ohio next week but will be back in time for the Fayetteville jam. I have looked over the membership roster for Mid-Atlantic Steel Guitar Association and would certainly like to meet more of you folks at these jams. I haven't been to one yet that was less than great fun and good pickin. If you're not attendiong these jams you really need to start. You will not find a better bunch of folks on this planet and I say that sincerely. My brother from Virginia is trying to schedule a trip down. He doesn't play steel but loves to listen and loves to play and sing so that steel can make "purdy" sounds for him. I'm hoping that he will get up and play and sing. He does a great job with Haggard and Jones stuff....you know...kinda makes a steel man wanna take him home and keep him singing. So if ya can folks....PLEASE!!!!!! DON'T CHEAT YOURSELF OUT OF THIS GREAT FUN TIME. Make plans to attend. You will go back home HAPPY!!!!!!

Hi Joe: Thanks for the nice remarks but I need to clarify your statment as only being a great lover of the steelguitar and its wonderful family. I do not consider myself as a steelguitar player other than being an enthusiast and a beginner at playing. But thats not all bad as there are some of us that has different talents to do a lot of things to promote and enjoy Steelguitar. I am just one of those that fall in that catagory and it takes more than just "players only" to promote Steelguitar and I just love doing the promoting.

Thanks Ken

I met Kenny at our Fayetteville Jam and He has so much talent. I am looking forward to seeing Kenny and all the great players in Fayetteville on the 10th and 11th.
Again I am sorry for the mix-up

Hey guys and girls,
After having all that fun in Mtn. City I wish I could be there with you all but I guess I'd better stay here in Nashville. My thoughts and prayers will be with all of you.

It's wonderful to hear that you're going to be in Fayetteville! I look forward to seeing (and hearing) you again! (And I assume your better half is coming too, right?)

(Monster player, that Kenny Dail . . . monster player!) Image

Hi Kim and Skip and Jim and Ken and Bowie and Shoe and Joe and all the gang. You got my head so big now don't know if it will go thru the door. I hope I can control my shaking hands and feet long enough to hold the bar, hit the right pedals and control the foot volume. Image Image
