We will be attending the Charlie Pride concert in Pueblo, CO next month and I was wondering the same thing. Anyone know?

It is easy to play the steel guitar. Playing so that the audience finds it pleasing is the difficult act.

Ronnie Miller is Charley's steel player. He plays a GFI Ultra D-10.

Ronnie is a great steel picker and nice person. I met him several years back at the Denver steel show. He used to come regularly to the Denver steel show as he is a prior student of Dick Meis from a few years back.

Here's a youtube cut of Ronnie and Charlie on the GOO.

You should have seen and heard his tribute to John Hughey at the Dallas Jamboree last year with Jean standing next to him. No a dry eye in the house. He brings the whole Charlie Pride band with him, even my buddy Reggie Reuffer.

I have been fortunate to have been good friends with Ronnie since 1976 (the two of us can put a big hurt on a steak house :))...I have a huge mix project that week but hope to try and make it down...

Dittoes to all the above. And his wife Ginger is a beautiful gal, inside and out. Two of the people I definitely look forward to seeing at the TSGA Jambos.

Son, we live in a world with walls, and those walls have to be guarded by men with steel guitars. Who's gonna do it? You? You, Lt. Weinberg?

This is as simple as I can put it; "I am fortunate to know and have a friend like Ronnie Miller", and that's the bottom line........

Not only does he play great , he has a super band ... This has to be one of the best acts to see. All the instruments that a steel player could want to interact with. Ronnie also has an eye for the best food places , and if he misses one he know who to call . JF

I was able to meet Mr. Miller and his wife at the Dallas show. Friendly - down to earth people. Ronnie is an awsome player and the Pridesmen are a great band.

Hey Jody Sanders - one set is not enough time for these guys at the Dallas show. How about 2 sets back to back? Like a mini concert.

Ronnie, you may be a foodie, but Jerry F. knows where to find good LOCAL Mexican food, and I'm not talking about the franchise stuff!.
