Hi Michael,

I lived in Denver for about 31 years and a 3 years ago moved to Loveland. I've played around Denver and Norther Colo quite a lot.

Where do you hang out?

Hello Michael, I do not live in Colorado but I would like to welcome you to the best steel guitar website going. I am sure you will enjoy what you have become a part of...Paul

Leroy, since I got this shiny new pedal steel from the guitar store, I'm not "hanging out" anywhere but right here next to the phone because I don't want to miss any calls. The nice, friendly salesman assured me the easy way to get plenty of high-paying gigs was to become a pedal steel player so I wouldn't have to compete with the hordes of standard guitar players you see all over the place. Something about "supply and demand" and "cornering the market". Anyway, it all sounded pretty scientific, so here I am, new to pedal steel and new to the forum. Got to go. Don't want to tie up the phone line anymore.

Seriously, I am new to pedal steel. If any of you Colorado guys have gigs coming up, let me know. You'll recognize me immediately. I'll be the guy staring at your shoes trying to figure out what all those little feet things do.

Welcome to this Great Forum Micheal from the Pyrenées in France.
that Salesmen did give you some good advice
i took up to Steelin' too 'cause of all them Guitar pickers crowdin' around.
i'm sure my fone don't ring as much as yours but at least i get the satisfaction of being part of the Happy Few that chose to Steel.
the moment i like most is when people ask me what is that instrument ? i know it's frequent but it has'nt been harassing yet

Stick to your Fone,Practice and GetGood Micheal

Hi Micheal,
Welcome to the place to be, The steel guitar Forum is the most informative place you can be, you might find out some things you don't wanna know, but this is the place for the good stuff. There is a lot of years of expierance on this forum. The list of people go right to the top. I never ask a question, that I didn't get a good answer.

Thank you all for the advice, encouragement and words of welcome. Chuck, thank you for the vote of confidence. I really can't thank Jim enough for all his help on the steel. Have a great time at the Texas show. When is the next Denver jam? Mike

Hiya Michael!
Sorry it took me so long, I have no matters or mind sometimes. I'm sure other people around here will vouch for that.
