He can tear it up too! I love James' unique approach. We are fortunate to have some of his stuff in rotation. He needs to do MORE!!! And if I might add, a pretty good teacher.

I met James when I was visiting on Bway,
I REALLY enjoyed his playing.
Not typical and yet right for the music.

Thank you all for the kind words. It always makes the gig go by faster when people enjoy the music. One of the things I like most about my job is all the great friends I get to make. I hope we will all stay in touch with eachother.So you guys make sure to let me know when you'll be back in Nashville.

Thanks again......James

Miss Lana put CISGA on to James and we are looking to possibly bring him in on a show. I hear really good things about him and unfortunately I haven't had a chance to hear him live...Really looking forward to it...Taking some time off and then we will start hot and heavy working on next year's show...

Hey Rich, you can catch a snip of James' playing on his website www.steellabs.com. It would be great to hear him play in Peoria.

I'll be in Nashville this weekend and will get to hear him Sunday night at the Stage on Broadway. Always a treat.

Rich, Thanks for the invite. Feel free to contact me to talk about it. Miss Lana has some great things to say about your shows. It was nice to see her yesterday at the Stage. She and her Mom both came to Nashville And I was pleased to have them at my gig.

Dean, Great to hear from you as always. How are all the folks back home? Hope all is well.

James - You sounded great as always at the Stage. (Even after driving all the way back from your week-long gig in south Alabam.) Take Me Back To Tulsa - flashbacks to the first time I heard you play. Eddie Lang and I were talking about you and both agree you're an incredible player.

Oh, and Mom really enjoyed hearing you live too. She, like me, likes it when you cut into some of that bluesy stuff but loved you doing that country thang.

Terry Bethel wants to know when you're going to finish that CD. He really enjoyed the demo.

Talk to you soon!

Miss Lana, Tell Terry that the CD will be in the works very soon (I hope). But in the mean time, My brother Mark has made a ton of up-grades to my web site with many more to come. He tells me soon we will have a link to download my tunes straight from Steel labs .com .We will be offering all the stuff you guy play on Steel Radio, plus new things as they come along. So keep an eye on the web site. I’m really proud of our new layouts, Mark did a great job!
