Hello all,this is my first post as a member of this amazing forum. I have just resumed playing steel after a 15 year hiatus. I'm new to the Web also... wow,the information that's available now sure would've helped 25 years ago. Looking forward to many happy hours of learning, & some great humour too.Three cheers for you all,especially b0b, for making this forum THE place to be!I hope to be able to add something of value someday soon.
Thanks,
CR.
