Mike, I watched that DVD I got from you at the last NTSGA jam and thought you did a great job on it. If anyone wants to hear great steel playering pick one of these DVD up.

Robert, I do not know if this is the correct place to put this but I seen Mike and talked to him at Russ and Linnie Hicks fish fry in Nashville this past summer. He is a super steel player and a super guy. I met him back in the first part of the 80's playing a gig on the east coast at a place called the Crazy Horse. He was burning that steel then and at Russ's fish fry he was scaulding it. John Hughey and Lloyd Greene and Mr Russ himself were all there as well. When I was learning to play the steel all three were my heroes and I have added since then another one which is Mike Sweeney.

Marvin,

Thank you so much for the kind words. The three you mentioned are all heroes of mine too. Man, I haven't thought of the Crazy Horse in years. That was one of Richmond, Va.'s biggest country music clubs 25 years or so ago. I wonder if it's still even there? I hope to run into you again soon. Take care.
