The Steel Guitar Forum

I am sorry to say I will have to cancel playing at your show...so sorry about this.

Thanks Junior and i hope all works out for you in your best interest. Thanks for your consideration and maybe next time things will work out for you.

We are pleased to announce The Dumplin Mr. Johnny Cox will be playing with us at the Fulton show on Friday and saturday as well. Mr. Ben Odell will be with us as well and we are going to have a great time. Friday night show starts at 7 and saturdays show starts at 1. Call me at 601 692 7237 or Jackhammer at 662 401 7017. There is a Holiday Inn and a Days Inn less than 5 minutes from the show there.

Wendell, I think we can fit a shuffle or two in the set. Do you do "Wild side of life" by chance? I think that one would be great!

Hey guys, I can only play in C chord! Wendell & Jack are a steelman's dream. Hey JP.

Lem--I don't do Wild Side of Life, but I have lived it!! Only kidding, but I'll bet we can find something both of us know. I know if I know the song you can play it! Send me an email with your phone number and I'll call you--Thanks for responding!!! See you soon--

Billy Carr--If you don't show up at this show, I'm sending a bounty hunter after you!! YOU BE THERE!! See you buddy--

Wendell, you better save a song or three for my set buddy..

Johnny, that is one invitation I won't pass up!!! We gonna have a ball--can't wait to see you again!! Feel another shuffle coming on----------So glad to see your name on the show!!

I am looking forward to the show ,it will be my first time and it sounds like a great one is taking shape. I look forward to seeing some old friends that were on the road when i was working with Dottie West,Dumplin( Johnny Cox) was with several well known artists as were other players like Mike Johnson and Lynn Owsley,there are just too many to mention.This will be a treat for me as i haven't done many shows in the past, but have started too ,because they are fun to do and meet new friends and steel players,thats what these are all about,its a brotherhood of players and friends and Lord knows we need to get some of these young guys and gals interested in this instrument, to take it into other forms of music. Come see the show and stop by and say hello. See Ya Soon, Rudy

I'm looking forward to this show as well. I haven't seen my old pal Rudy in several years. This will be a great reunion.

I plan to be in Fulton on Friday night, October 5, to hopefully play piano for you guys. I will need to be back in Brandon for the Brandon Opry on Saturday night, October 6.

Bobby, you need to change your plans and play at Fulton on Saturday too!!! Just playing Friday will be like showing a kid a bag of candy and only giving him one piece!! Oh well, that's better than none at all--looking forward to seeing you again!! See you friend-----

Im very ready for the show I am a huge fan of the texas troubadors so getting to see Johnny Cox who was once a memeber of the troubadors will be great.

who is rudy osborne?
a few folks have ask me...country jack, just who is this rudy osborne, do you know him?
i met rudy i think in very 1976, or very late '75.
he had just finished a 5 year world tour as the steel player for the late and legendary dottie west.
he was there in what is known as the "vegas years".
pre-kenny rogers, also as was, larry gatlin and steve wariner! you talk about a guy that was there when it happened...that was rudy osborne.
to hear the rest of the story up close and personal, be at this event and share country music history.
twice around the world and numerous appearences at the opry and heehaw and countless one nite stands
across the united states and canada.
that's the rudy i'm talkin' about, rudy osborne...
country jack..........
