I enjoyed your show at the St. Louis convention last night, and lots of other people there did too! And then again there were some closed minded people who wouldn't even give themselves a chance to see if they might be able to enjoy something different but that is just the way of the world.
Your group shows lots of imagination and it was plain to see and feel the soul that you put into it.
There is nothing wrong with being "out of the box" so to speak....keep it up, we need more of it! Thank you for your efforts.
Best wishes,
Doug Earnest

Thank you Doug:), it's very important for me to get encouraging feedback like your comment. Yeah, nothing wrong with traditional playing but if nothing new is tried then any artform will dry up.. again thank you and all the best!

Southpaw Steel and Twang
Wow! Those guys were absolutely amazing! Call it Progressive or New or Innovative....That Trio just oozed Talent. I hope they are invited back. Reminded me just a little bit of Nils Tuxen. Again 2 great sets!!! Music is the Universal Language.
Pedal Steel Guitar is "Music from Heaven"

Great stuff
I really enjoyed the whole weekend, especially Steel n' Twang's sets. Nice classy jazz mixed with strands of Dick Dale and Link Wray. Very cool. And I enjoyed meeting the guys. Good luck with future gigs.

Ville,
You guys were great! It was such a blast getting to meet you all and see your sets. The energy and dedication you all bring to your music is inspiring. Good luck with the rest of your trip to America and have a safe trip home.
PS: I personally thanked Michael Scott for taking a chance on your band and for bringing you over. I agree with your statements about the future of this music. Keep the fire going!!
