Depends how much real estate you want to include as "reasonable distance." In the area spanning, say, Charlotte/Asheville/Spartanburg, I know there's at least a few of us.

Hello,

Yes, I would consider that to be a reasonable distance. I live about an hour from all those cities. Thanks Eli

Hello Scott,

That is great news. Although I am thankful for the internet and all the instructional videos it provides, I also think it would benefit me seeing PSG players live in action. I would love to meet and hear some of PSG players that are gigging around my area. Thank you for your post.

Nah--I stopped playing out about the time COVID hit, and hadn't been playing out more than a couple of times a month before that. I'm mostly a banjo player anyway.

Hey Dave,

Sounds good. Covid has changed a lot of things concerning live music. To say the least. Prayers for anyone walking through that valley. Thank you for your reply. Eli
