Oklahoma City Visit Recommendations

Post by Luke Moldof »

Hello all,
I will be visiting Oklahoma City tonight (Friday, September 3rd) and was wondering if anyone knows of a venue where I could hear some steel playing? If not are there any other venues, bars, or other places that would be good to visit?

I realize this is very last minute and hopefully this is an acceptable place to post this. If not, I apologize.

Thanks a ton,
Luke

I don't know where to hear steel but the Banjo museum is nice. It's right next to Bricktown Brewery.

Luke, sorry I didn't see your post sooner! I'm not playing tonight, but I might could have sent you somewhere that had a steel. You can pm me if you're going to be around a day or so.

Hey Kenny and Nic,
Thanks so much for your responses. Had to leave early the next morning unfortunately. Would be great to get to spend more time there and check out the banjo museum. Hopefully I can get back there soon.

Really appreciate it,
Luke

See if you can find out where Tommy Crook is playing. Not a steeler, but he's the guy that Chet Atkins said was the world's best guitar player.

I think he's in Tulsa but not sure if he's still playing out.

Maybe take a brief break from all the PSG stuff, and consider going to the memorial park. A beautiful and moving experience and as 9/18 approaches, a great opportunity to consider the fruits of right wing radicalism and domestic terrorism.

Thanks again for the recommendations. As a reminder, I was only there for the one night but I’ll definitely put all the recommendations on my list for the next time I visit!

Best,
Luke

I wouldn't worry since Bill & Janet aren't relevant this time.
