During the National Finals Rodeo in Las Vagas December 6 through December 15 I will be appearing with Danny Hooper http://www.dannyhooper.com at The Orleans Hotel and Casino. I had a few forum members drop by last year and I hope to see some again this year. It is an evening of mostly classic country. We will be playing from 9:00 till 2:00 nightly.

Thanks,
Smokey[This message was edited by Smokey Fennell on 18 November 2002 at 10:47 AM.]

If you have a chance to see the Danny Hooper show with Smokey on steel, don't miss it. It's excellent. Danny is an outstanding entertainer. And the show is "pure country" no matter what they play. When my wife and I saw them here last year, we agreed it was the best show, bar none, that we had seen in many years. And Smokey is one of those friendly guys you can talk to after the show. Oh yeah, he plays great steel guitar too!

Thanks for the plug Don. I am always ready to talk steel guitar with folks.

Bill, I am looking forward to seeing you down there again.

I hear tell that Fort Worth's own Jake Hooker along with Dicky Overby and Bobby Flores will be playing in Vegas for the NFR also, so check them out too!

Just three more days and the rodeo and country music fun begins. I am told that it is the second busiest week in Las Vegas.
