A video Chat with Buddy

Post by Gerry Simon »

Thought I would post this chat with Buddy in hopes there are some who might find it interesting. He was gracious to put up with my meandering questions and otherwise we had a good time hiking and enjoying the local beauty.

Thanks for posting that. I believe Buddy Cage is responsible for a lot of guys in my age bracket (I'm 66) getting interested in playing the pedal steel guitar.

There are only two options as I see it.
Either I'm right, or there is a sinister conspiracy to conceal the fact that I'm right.

I met Buddy when we were taking steel guitar lessons. We went to high school together. He would come over to my house and we'd set up our steel's in the living room and play for hours.

Thanx for posting that. He was a beautiful cat. From the looks of things, he got out of this world just in time.

So John Cadeau - You knew Buddy Cage way back when. If it's not a big secret, what was his actual given name?
