I had posted previously, I guess on another post, that regrettably I will not be able to make this show. I hope Bobby that you will keep me in mind for the next show. Thanks for the invite. Larry Baker

WOW! Only 6 more days to go. This will be a great show.
You don't want to miss this one. Make plans to be there.

Bobby D. Reed · Post by **Bobby D. Reed** » 29 Oct 2012 8:11 am

There has been some slight changes in the line-up due to outside obligations on behalf of the players.
Mike Johnson will play two shows on Saturday and none on Friday due to a major label recording session that came in late.
Johnny Arview has candeled due to a very serious surgery scheduled for his mother on Nov 2nd. He has been replaced by Shannon Todd. Shannon now lives in Nashville after 20 + years of playing Vegas.
Thanks to all who have called in to get advance ticket prices. There is still time for anyone who'd like to call. 615 419 9642. Thanks again....Bobby

folks today is last day starts at 10 am ends at 10 ? pm check it out, great plyers and lots of nice guitars and supplies at the vendors, having a great time

Gary Sill · Post by **Gary Sill** » 3 Nov 2012 8:22 pm

We visited with many people and had a great time both days. Topped off today with Mike Johnson and his lovely wife Joannie.

Mike just amazes anyone who hears him live. It is like he digs into his mind and finds a new variation on something he has played many times and it comes off really ingenious in the end. If you get a chance he is the man to hear on steel. Mike and Joannie and his band worked flawlessly through the evening.

Many other great players, Ron Elliott, Lynne Owlsley, Eddie Dunlap and many more.

Great singers, male and female were on the stage.

Give us a call if you missed something and you did not buy it at the show. We ship worldwide.

Hey Lynn, you guys and gals were all great and did a fantastic job.
This show was as good as ISGA and the Derby room use to be.

Doing 2 full days of videos about wore me out, but it was worth it.
