Bill, in the studio, it was probably Paul Franklin. When the song is performed live, it is their steel player, Roy Kontz. I play along with it on my steel while Paul plays on the record. I love the song, especially the steel parts. "Workin' On My Next Broken Heart" is one of my all-time favorite Brooks & Dunn songs. Brett Day, Emmons S-10

They may have their road picker on the video, but the sound track is from the album. Bruce Bouton on their sessions.

B&D'S road steel player used to be Troy Klontz. Does anyone know if he is still with them? We grew up in the same town in Oklahoma, and he was a great player when he was 12 years old. Troy also played in the band that backed Roy Clark for several years.

We opened up for them last month and Troy is still playing with them. They're doing a pretty wild tour this year. Troy is a heck of a steel player.

Bruce Bouton plays in the studio along with Brent Mason.

Kevin still with Terri?

We met at a show you did in Indy last year.

Counting down until BB season starts.
