Show schedule for 2022

Hi Folks,
It looks like a pretty busy year encompassing several areas of the USA. I enjoy meeting and talking shop with fellow steel-guitarist. I usually have some spare time, so click on the link below and let me know if you’d like to visit while we’re in your area.

I’ll try to get up to my hometown Hiawassee, GA in August and see you! I’m rather proud of that facility and hope you like it.

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?

Hey Marty,
It looks like you'll be in Abilene, Tx on April 22nd. I teach and play at the Dallas show and Phoenix show every year. I'd like to get together if you have any time close to the Abilene show.

After several months of self-reflection I have relinquished my position with Tracy Byrd. It has been a great experience as a Byrd Dawg.

I believe that, at this point in life, it’s more important to begin my retirement years spending time with my family, traveling, and taking advantage of our good health.

Best regards,

I understand and respect you for your decision. The playing is fun, but all the other stuff gets old. Some people don't understand how there sometimes comes a time when you've just had enough of something, and you need a change. Good luck and enjoy.

Rick,
For me it’s all about being blessed with the opportunity to retire, be in good health, and spend my time with my family while our health is not a negative issue. I’ve talked with several people including retirement planners and doctors, and two common problems seem to surface. One is the cost of health insurance and the other is health issues. We are grateful not to have those problems so we’re taking advantage of our situation.

There are issues with touring; the most significant being the time requirements. My runway is not as long as it used to be so I made a life choice.

Take care,

Retirement

Marty, it’s a rare musician who can walk away from touring/gigging like you stated. Very very wise decision to enjoy life while you can get the most out of it. You won’t regret it.

Bonne Chance, Marty.

Hi Tommy,
I retired from touring, but Joe Rogers will be there on steel. I might go to visit. If so, I’ll look you up.
