Steel guitar master Clyde Mattocks will be performing with his group "Without Further Ado" at the Ice House Theatre in Selma, NC this Friday night; showtime is 7:45 p.m. For full details or reservations: www.countrytonightmusicshow.com or call 252-237-6199. Your whole family would enjoy this show, plus you will hear some great steel and dobro. In fact, when Clyde plays there, you might mistaken this for a steel convention with all the steelers in the audience! Most agree is could be called a steel guitar seminar!!! Hope to see a lot of my fellow steelers there!!

Hi Bowie I know I'm missing a lot of great steel not being able to make these Selma Steel Show with all the good freinds Anna and I have down there.WE hope we are getting close to selling our home here and getting down there. We have a few homes picked out in Smithfield area or Willow Springs where we lived before.

I doubt you've ever actually heard him, Billy. It's always past your bedtime when he plays!

Clyde, for the Ice House crowd, there is no such thing as too much steel!! We are just trying to use some of that steel up that a lot of producers try to hide in Nashville. Our crowd loves the steel guitar!
I recently played at a festival, and had the country radio announcer walk on the stage to introduce our band. He stopped at me and asks me "Is that a steel guitar?" When I told him yes, he asked me if I was going to play it. I stopped short of saying "Naw, just got some ironing to do; here's your sign." Its a sad state of affairs when country DJ's are hard pressed to recognize or know what a steel guitar is.
I guess we should be thankful that enough of the good producers are using them, even in limited amounts. That is due more to the style of music they produce I suspect, rather than a direct snub.
Look forward to hearing you tonight as always, Clyde. You represent real steel guitar proudly!!
