I want to thank all the organizers for a great experience. I have been away from music for quite a while and my rusty playing showed it. Still, I had a great time and met a bunch of very nice people and great pickers. I hope we can do this again relatively soon.

If that was you when you're rusty, I can only imagine what goes on when you're warmed up!

Beautiful playing, Mr. Nichols! :)

Hey Bob,

I thought your Fender sounded killer! I love the Sneaky sounds.

Jon thanks for asking me to play, I do sometimes but sometimes I feel more needed working on the event and answering questions and greeting than playing my same old pedals up and pedals down stuff.

I leave the fancy stuff to the rest of you, thus I am the big winner because I get to hear YOU.

Larry,
I truly appreciate the amount of effort it takes to put something like this together. I think we all thank you guys for being willing to do it - we all benefit from it for sure. Thanks for doing it. But I also appreciate your playing! It's always great to hear you.

Appreciation

To all the guys that organized this event it was great. From our not so "Ol' friend Larry Behm to Tony Glassman, Lynn,Harley, and everyone that made this possable. It was great fun.

P.S. Tony, it sure helped you took all the time to chart everything. I think that was a major factor during the event!

Wayne, thanks.

Our hope was to remove the fear factor, so everyone could concentrate on playing their best. Sounds like the charts are a keeper.

Sorry about posting so late.

I just want to thank everyone involved. The organization of the event was great. Even though I was there without a guitar and I was seeing the jam for the first time, I still felt welcomed and included in the festivities.

I met a ton of neat people (including a neighbor!) that I hope to keep in touch with.

I had a truly great time and look forward to adding my beginner steel skills to the mix at a future jam.
What a great event!
