Where You All From

Post by Dave A. Burley »

I've always wondered just where all you steel players are from. What part of the world do you all live in? What state is best represented or for that matter, what country? Maybe this question has been answered before.....If not, give me a shout. Thank's , Dave A. Burley

Almost everyone that posts has their location as part of the user ID info that appears.

However, with the mobile society in the US there are many "transplants" as myself. I'm originally from Mechanicsburg, Pa.

The above was from a reply to the post, Where You All From.

I realize that everyones location is with their name but I thought it would be great to have a list without having to go through every name, missing many.
Thanks for the response. Once this runs it's course if anyone is interested in the complete list I will send it to you.
Thanks,
Dave A. Burley

I'm not quite sure anymore where I'm from.

Post by J D Sauser »

Born in Switzerland where I started playing about 20 years ago.
Went all over Europe. Then, lived in Ecuador and probably was the first steeler there bringing an ol' Sho Bud -my first PSG- from Nashville in 1993, then receiving there a Sierra session brand new and two years later a brand new Carter.
Then I moved to Florida and lived there for several years.
In 2001 we moved to Spain.
Now, since almost 3 years I live on the North Coast of the Dominican Republic (Hispaniola Island), where I arrived with a beautiful MSA SuperSlide and now play one of Carl Dixon's PSG's... most likely again, the first only only PSG in this country too.

Believe it or not, the local kids here in the DR enjoy some steel. What really turn's them wild is Speedy West, no kidding! Stratosphere Boogies sends'em almost out there dancing!

... J-D.
