Nashville Nights is a nice brand new club and this should be a great jam. Thanks for organizing this Terry! I'll see you there.

All musicians are welcome. My goal is to have an old fahioned jam, featuring the steel guitar. All are welcome. I aim to encourage good times, good music, and good friends. Be prepared for a jammin' good time!

Akron Ohio, Steel Fest
Just a few days until the Steel Fest and I am as nervous as a cat in a room full of rocking chairs! I have never done anything like this before. I hope to see a lot of steelers, pickers, and old friends, but most importantly I hope to have fun. See you all on Sunday.

I want to thank all who attended Akron's first Steel Guitar Fest. I had a great time hearing all the other steel players as well as all the other musicians and singers who showed up. My wife is already pestering me to plan another one. It was a great blessing to be able to spend the day with my music family. You all sounded so good. Thanks again. There are just not enough words to express how much it meant to my wife and me to have you all show up and play so well.

Hey "T" ,
Had a great time ! What a wonderful day of fellowship and music . Great to see old friends and make new ones .
The club was super nice . Hope they do well . I'm sure it's difficult in these times .
Looks like the next one is in Pa. Making plans to attend . Hope to see everyone over there .
Looks like I'll have to wait 'til January for the next Hummingbird jam at Bolivar . That's OK . Keep the steel guitar alive and well by supporting these Jams !!
Thanks again Sandy and Terry . Love ya !!!! RT

Thanks Rick! If the truth be known, you were the main inspiration behind the jam. I can not begin to tell you how much I appreciated all your imjput and guidance in preparing for it. Your love and appreciation of the instrument and music in general is what inspires us all. And we are not the only ones that feel that way, either. We both love ya, man. We're talking about trying for another jam possibly in December. We'll talk about this later.

Akron, OH photos
I wanted to share these photos. I have permission from the photographer, Ray Adkins. Rumor has it that Terry may be considering having another jam in the near future. What a good time we had!
