Well here's one back at ya' Mike. You and Mr. Blankenship (sorry, forgot his 1st name)

I sure enjoyed your pickin'.....that GFI sounded great.

I'll be starting a thread in Steel Players, since this thread is on the lengthy side and is not really an annoucement anymore.<font size="1" color="#8e236b"><p align="center">[This message was edited by HowardR on 14 November 2005 at 05:17 PM.]</p></FONT>

Craig just about covered everything I would have said. It was so nice meeting many of my friends I had not seen since my last seminar with Jeff Newman. I want to thank Bob Maickel, Jeff DeMaio, John, Darlene and of course Mike Gross and his wonderful wife Susan for there hospitality and the ride back to the airport Monday. It was also a pleasure to manage the stage and get the artist ready to play their set. And thanks Joe Wright for the chiro on my carpel Tunnel
Friday while setting up the lighting. I'm sure Fooch thanks you also.

Don,

Glad that you are home in Florida safely. You are very welcome from Susan and myself. Most of all, you deserve all sorts of thanks for all the work that you did getting things together on the stage. You sure worked like a bear all weekend for everybody up there and I want to be the first to thank you for your part of making this PSGA weekend the success that it was.

As V.P. of the PSGA, I would personally like to thank all the "Great Steel Players" we had for the show. You all gave us a show to remember.
I would also like to thank our fantastic backup musicians. Again, they were a perfect compliment to the best of the best.
But, most of all, I would like to send a "Heartfelt Thank You" to our club members. You all responded wonderfully to the show, with your attendance and exuberance. We needed the support, and you, the club members provided it. Remember, it's your club as it is our's ( the officers ) We are just elected to guide it and make it a club to be proud of. We, the officers, will continue to make it so, for as long as we can.
Sincerely,
John De Maille VP-PSGA

I need to give special thanks to the steel players that loaned me there guitars for me to play my three sets at this great steel meet.
Jeff D. for the P-P Emmons,
Mike Sigler for the great GFI
And to the guy that drove across CT. just to loan me his double neck eight string SuperSlide with which to play my last show.
Mr. Drew Ritzu, a fine CT. player and great steel supporter and person. Thank you again Drew,(Dru?).
I don't think I've ever met so many great new folks in one place at one time in my entire life. Fans and players both.
Everyone needs to see this show next year, It is GREAT!

Bobbe,
It was a pleasure having you at our show. Next time we won't have such a long timespan between your appearances.
Sincerely,
John De Maille VP-PSGA

John, this show would not have been the success it was with out the great leadership and staff such as yourself, Jeff, Bob, Mike and us hoodlums on stage.
I haven't mentioned Joe Wright in any of my complimentary posts here, but lets face it, this guy is a monster, the entertaining nut of steel guitar! Not only a wonderful player, but a great guy and a total pleasure to watch.
The reason I played the SuperSlide on the last show was that these guys were to hard to follow on a pedal guitar! Ha!
Again I must say that I met some of the most wonderful people on earth at this great show.
Getting off the plane at Laguardia and being recognised was wonderful to my ego also, until I realized they were just fellow players coming in from around the world for the CMA show in NYC. I'm sure my Sho-Bud T-shirt helped me look like a star!

Bobbe,

Thanks for the kind mention. It is really appreciated. Whatever I did was fun! Glad that I could help.

You say that they made you feel like a star at the airport. Amigo, you are a star!!!!!
