| Hey Bob, What do you think, Contact those who have contacted you, set a date according to what these folks can make, and a place to meet, and go for a first showing, and take it from there? Post the date for everyone else to see, and see what happens? |

Bob, your initiative in forming a steel guitar club in the Oklahoma City metropolitan area is exemplary. I have not previously replied to your post because I quit playing in 2002.
But, I remember about 15 years ago when someone else attempted to form a local club (such as the one in Tulsa) but it died on the vine for lack of participation. I wish you success in overcoming the apathy and I support you in spirit if not in participation!
Good luck my friend,

Hey Bob,
If you're thinking about a meeting room, the JOHNNIES CHARCOAL BROILER's around OKC have good meeting rooms and some of the best store-bought chickenfried steak and gravy around here. Should be available most week nights.
Does BEST WESTERN in Chickasha have a good meeting room? (that way Jimmy wouldn't have to drive a zillion miles  )

| If a meeting would coincide with my visits to the family in OKC (2-4 times a year), I'll come and cheer. (I'm not accomplished enough to justify hassling with the airlines and a PSG.) |

| OK, Ben they'll be plenty of "stuff" to play (but you know the pick n bar rule I have played in the center at Tuttle on a regular basis, would be probably just about right size (and cheap too) for a initial meeting. We can discuss possible rotating area meetings to help out with the mileage issue at 1st meeting. I will send everyone an email probably by friday with the particulars...Bob |
