So? Who's going to the show?

I can't make it this year. I just can't afford it. As some of you know, my 12 year old car finally died last January, and I replaced it with a brand new Prius.

I love the car, but paying for it is putting a major dent in my finances. Hopefully I'll have recovered enough by this time next year to be able to afford the trip.

Laurie and I will be there Friday, Saturday and Sunday. I play a set in the Hawaiian Room Friday morning and the main auditorium Sunday morning.

I can't miss meeting my newest hero, David Hartley, and visiting with all of my old friends and other heroes.

Wish I could be there.

I think everything is in place. If nothing goes wrong, I'll see you all in St. Louis. I hope to meet each and every one of you.

Roy, one of the reasons I regret not going this year is that I want to meet you.

Maybe next year.

I'm finally going. It's my first time to St Louis andI hope to meet as many of you as possible. The talent list looks great. Couldn't ask for a better line-up. I am very excited and can't wait.

Mike,

We will probably go next year, but I doubt if I'll play on the big stage; packing my gear and lugging it on the airline trip is just too much of a hassle. I may decide to take my little 6-string lap steel and plug into a borrowed amp to play a few Hawaiian songs on L.T. Zinn's Hawaiian show. Try to make it if you can. If I'm there I won't be hard to find. (I'll be the handsome one with the silver-blond hair.)
