Doug, count me and Luann in there. Looking forward to a great time. You need to stretch this into three days, there's sooo much great music to enjoy and great people.
Put Erv's table between mine and Fred's we'll try to keep him under control.

Hey! Two against one, that's no fair!

Control Erv? Good luck!!! Mercy, I forgot about Fred. I do think "control" is completely out of the question in both cases.
However, I too look forward to being there and seeing ole Fred and Erv again. It's a long drive but certainly worth it.

Long drive??? Jerry are you kidding me? its just around the block for you.

Now, I've got a bit of a drive to get there.

But we can all agree on one thing, its sure worth it!!!!!

Who will be playing on Saturday?

Doug Rolfe · Post by **Doug Rolfe** » 28 Mar 2007 5:31 am

The lineup isn't complete yet but it will include John Hughey, Doug Jernigan, Mike Sigler, at least one sacred steeler, Jerry Roller, Jerry Newberry and Austin Stewart, Al Svenddal, Robison Family, Wayne Smith, Fred Justice and a host of others. We have a couple of special events planned for Saturday also.
We'll also have a great lineup for Friday evening as well.

Thom Beeman · Post by **Thom Beeman** » 28 Mar 2007 8:04 am

Doug, You should start planning on a three day show. There are soooo many great players and traveling 2000 mile one way three days would make me forget the gas prices.

Doug Rolfe · Post by **Doug Rolfe** » 30 Mar 2007 8:38 am

It's a tough job getting two days organized much less three, but it's coming along. We have our players all lined up and are working on the seminar with Doug Jernigan.
You can go to our website which is www.gospelsteel.com for more info. Ya'all come and be with us.

Erv Niehaus · Post by **Erv Niehaus** » 30 Mar 2007 8:43 am

Doug,
I am going to be bringing this custom Rains gospel model guitar with me to the show and Thom is building me a seat with custom embroidery to go along with it.

Fred Justice · Post by **Fred Justice** » 30 Mar 2007 10:33 am

Doug the time is growing nearer along with the excitement.

Erv I was wondering who bought Charlie's guitar, you lucky hound you!!

Erv Niehaus · Post by **Erv Niehaus** » 30 Mar 2007 10:38 am

Fred,
I just couldn't resist it! As you know, all I play is gospel music and this guitar is made to order for my type of playing. You'll get a chance to see it at Indy.
Take care,
Erv

Fred Justice · Post by **Fred Justice** » 30 Mar 2007 11:02 am

That makes for a good pair Erv, you and that guitar.
I got to set and play that guitar before Charlie took delivery on it, its a wonderful piece of work.

Doug Rolfe · Post by **Doug Rolfe** » 1 Apr 2007 3:17 pm

Great News!!! I've been waiting until now to confirm that David Spires will be with us again this year. This couldn't be confirmed until now as Jo Dee might have had a booking that would have been that same weekend.
David jokingly said that Jo Dee blocked that weekend just so he could come to the show. I told him to tell her thanks.
We had talked with him last year about the possiblity of this happening, so just another great reason to come to see us at the GSGA show here in INDY.

To the top for a great event!

Doug Rolfe · Post by **Doug Rolfe** » 11 Apr 2007 4:11 am

Just three weeks until we have some of the greatest music this side of heaven. John Hughey, Doug Jernigan, Mike Sigler, David Spires and a host of others will be blessing us at the 15th annual GSGA show. Also there is still room for you to sign up for the Doug Jernigan workshop, which is only $50.00.

Linda and I will be making the journey from Atlanta, pulling our trailer loaded with sound gear. We had so much fun last year handling the sound, we begged Doug to let us do it again.

So we'll be arriving on Wednesday night. Any of you muscle guys, we'll be unloading the trailer Thursday morning.

And our dear friends, Jim & Pat Stewart from Vero Beach will be traveling with us. They have this neat little GPS we named Shirley to show us the way. However, when you turn in the main drive at the hotel, Shirley says, go around the lake, so we do.

We are looking forward to Bill and his sound crew being with us again this year. They did a fantastic job last year. It sure makes it easier to pick the songs for the video when you don't have to worry abour the sound.

Doug Rolfe · Post by **Doug Rolfe** » 13 Apr 2007 7:56 am

Just got a call from Gary Adams who was with the famous George Jones/Paycheck "Adams Brothers Band" will be here to be a part of the Doug Jernigan set. This will be quite a treat.
