Wow, I can't wait, and Tommy Dodd to boot! That should be a great show and PSG fellowship.

Hey Friends,

I guess you might say I'm the new kid on the block but I must say I have really enjoyed meeting and working with all the folks in the MASGA. Our desire is to promote the PSG and build a huge listener force. So if you are a player,want to be player, or a listener come out and support these jams.I can assure you along with newcomers like me there are plenty of seasoned players to dazzle us all with their talents.

Be sure to know, we always value your opinion and want your input on how to better our conventions.

Hi Chuck,
Mike Callaway (a lot of times) provides a small seminar on a specific topic of his choice. Maybe we'll be lucky and be able to attend another one of these during the day. Always a good presentation along with literature to support it. Great guy and one of my favorite pickers.

Steel bubby,

Allen Howington

Just another "match on the fire" to keep this on the top. We want to make sure we fill this building up for all the hard work these guys do to have this jam. Looking forward, especially to my buddy Jerry fleming, hope he can make it.

I really enjoyed talking with you and Larry last night. I promise to be there with new strings and ear plugs for everyone. I am a little rusty, I sure miss the fellowship and hanging out with my friends. I need a holiday and this is it! I look forward to it!!

Sam - I hope you and Anna can make it too. I would love to see you both!

Happy Steeling!

E.R & I have had a number of calls requesting we have a return to a "Round Robin" for an hour or so at the next Kannapolis jam, and if we would indicate what tracks we would use so the players could come prepared.
For those players here are four tracks I suggest (I welcome suggestions also). We should have time for a couple more tracks:
Track #1 - We Could (C & C#) John Hughey track
" #2 - Born To Lose (D & F) Ron Elliott Track
" #3 - 15 Years Ago (D) John Hughey Track
" #4 - Farewell Party (D & E) Joe Turner Track

Appreciate your input!
