Myron ,Maybe the reason you didn't qualify is you played the wrong instrument.

The others mentioned played Pedal Steel. I have never seen a Peddle Steel,does it have two wheels?

If it has two wheels, it would be a push-pull cart...

Hi,
The topic has changed in this since the original message was left so I will try to reply with a summary of what I thought after reading the whole thing. I am from Shelton, so there is a steel player in the bordering town to Ansonia. I have seen Gunsmoke play at the Huntington Center Green (they have different genre summer concerts every wed night). They pick great songs to play, seemed like many songs I'd want them to play they were playing already. Go check their website for the date they'll be playing in Shelton.

I never did get to play steel guitar in Ct, but I did live in North Mianus back in the mid 50's, went to 4th grade at North Mianus school and then we move up Witherell drive, can't remember the name of the rd that was on, near Greenwich though, went to North Street School in 5th grade, must have been around 1955 or 56. Then we moved back to Maryland. Still have lots of relatives in Ct. Beautiful state.
