OK Ralph we can fix that for you. You have a big room built on top of your Mobil Home and we will be able to have the Mini Steel Guitar Jamboree's and Steel Show there plus the meetings and you supply the Food for our Pot luck Dinners at the meetings.I think the Park owner will just love it.HA WE might be a little noisey for your neighbors but who cares about your neighbors as lone as we all have fun.

YO Ralph I'm glad you had a great time and enjoyed playing with the Band. They are what Ray wanted a Professional Band and they did a Great Job.Al Denton said they were right on the money with every song and the were right together and they are tight.I'm glad you are going to play a Gig with them as you were right on the money with them.WE did fine for being in between Christmas & New Years. All I care about is we made enought to pay the Hall the Band and had money to put in the bank in the NESGA Account.Our Meeting will be comming up January 18TH and we will talk about the dues and Future Mini Steel Guitar Jamborees.I have the bands all booked until June.WE have Lovin Country,Susan Adams and Side Kicks,Goat Ropers,and Doggie and the Cow Pie Poachers.The people all love these bands to dance to.
