Last night on the popular game show Jeopardy, the correct answer which has to be in the form of a question, was "What is the pedal steel guitar? The person, who went on to win the game, was credited for getting it right, saying what is the steel guitar. It went by so fast, and I don't remember how the answer read exactly, but it was something like, The instrument played by Greg Leisz that's on a stand.

Yes Marc I seen it to and I did not like what they gave as a description.I feel they should have said it has four legs pedals and Knee levers.It made it sound like some kind of a peice of something.As soon as I heard the question I said to my Wife the answer is steel guitar.

The day after, I was at my physical therapist and she mentioned to me that she saw that also. She's a pop-rocker, but I am initiating her into country and the steel guitar. [This message was edited by Richard Sinkler on 17 January 2004 at 12:50 PM.] |
