Man I'd love to attend, depending of course on the dates. Im in Fresno area so its not too bad a trip. I too am a beginner. someone used the term "rank beginner" in another post.
I can't think of a better way to describe my steel playing at this point. Started play about 10 days ago. Looking forward to more concrete info on this venue. |

We're encouraged by all the interest in this, thanks.
Atascadero and Paso Robles get really hot in the summer, I'm thinking of holding off till the cooler fall. Since it's just a weekend thing, don't think it requires anyone's summer vacation to attend. Correct me if I'm wrong.

| Fall is harvest time in wine country here. There are lots of events going on, and a very busy time. Hotel rooms will be at a premium. Something to think about. This time of year is a good time... |

Good tip, Danny, thanks.
What part of TX are you exiled from? Who'd you play with? Play a lot of C6? |

Exiled by choice, but my heart is still there  Ft. Worth.
I had a long-winded response here, but wore myself out re-reading it, so I "condensed" it
I do play some C6 but it's blended, utilizing a U-12 tuning...
Played with a number of different artists in TX. It's a great place for a steeler. CA too has it's share of great pickers and I've really enjoyed pickin out here....

Danny,
Did you drive out here in that car or was it towed? 
See you @ Mongo's Terry |

| Well, it's about 15 miles from our house, but we drive there on the weekends to eat at In-and-out for burgers and fries. Why not a steel get together? Sounds great. |

| I'm interested in a seminar and jam. Like Dave, I would enjoy a seminar for C6, even a short one, to get me started. |

Just a thought... but Bobby Black would be an ideal person to give a C6th seminar ...(or any tuning for that matter ).

David Wren, Bobby teaching C6 is a great idea! I'm not very qualified at this point.
Keep those ideas coming, gang!

That's great info, Bob, thanks! When plans finalize with a date, I'll call Big Jim.
How's that cool ZB of yours? That was a fun jam with you and John Clarke and Larry Schubert.

| That particular ZB was traded for a CZB S12 6/4 that's in the final stages of tweaking into a universal, but I have two other D10s and a D11/10 that's my current favorite. You'll have to give it a run next time you're up here. S/N is 0008. |

I'm interested as well.
Just for reference, Bill Llewellyn and I are thinking of holding another NorCal jam in October in Alameda.

I'm in, depending on the date. I hope you don't mind a beginnerish steeler.

The jam session will be open to ALL levels.
The seminar(s), if we have any, will be spelled out, including prerequisite knowledge needed to get the most out of them. Generally, I teach "new beginner" to "more experienced beginner" level courses.
This will be figured out as we develop plans, probably for the fall, I'm too busy now to add another project to tackle right away. But John Clarke and I do want to pull off something fun and interesting as soon as feasible.

Hi Peter, long time no talk or see! I was just talking about you, nicely of course, with John Lee White III last night at a rehearsal we were both at for a great local singer, Marjorie Michelle Rose. Ring me up someday to talk steel!
Now, back on topic: we intend to do this in the fall when the weather is cooler. We have a great venue, I have most of the gear necessary to do a BIAB-powered jam session (hopefully by then I'll have learned my new Mac version), we do have live players if we go that route, and if I teach I have plenty of topics to go over for beginner and intermediate levels.
Thanks for the inquiry, stand by, more to come in the coming months. We (with buddy John Clarke) will post a new announcement here when all info is known.

| If the date that is selected is open for me I expect to be there. I might even bring a D-10 Rus-ler that would be for sale, relatively cheap. |
