BMUP TO TOP!!!!!!!!!!

See you soon!!!!!!!!!!

I am so looking forward to this show. Great players like JayDee and Larry Tolliver amongst so many other great talents.

I'll be arriving early, cause I just can't wait.

I'm afraid I have to cancel.

I was really looking forward to it, especially because I missed last year, but there's just no way I can go.

getting close, can't wait!!! Red and I will be there Love this show

This one is shaping up to be the best ever!!! Don't miss it. January 17, 18 and 19 at the Sheraton Crescent in Phoenix, AZ. See you there!!

Billy, any estimate when the schedule of players' sets will be announced? Thanks!

John...
I hope to have all the confirmations from the rest of the players by the end of this week....the schedule is nearly done, and I will publish it as soon as this happens. Of course, there are always last minute changes that happen due to illness, travel problems, etc. We are looking forward to having you there, John.

I too, am looking forward to playing the show again this year, it's always fun to jam with my buddy's out west ! i need a little sun shine after all this snow.. See you-all soon!

MS.

I'll be there!

We will have the local Fox 10 TV station there on Thursday doing a remote. The weather man at that station is a great singer and will more than likely chime in on a song.

It is really shaping up

I too am looking forward to getting into some Arizona sun for a few days. It's been pretty dreary here in Atlanta over the holidays and a road trip to Mesa sounds like just the right ticket.

The SWSGA always puts on a great show and I'm sure this year will be no exception!

A little sunshine and steel guitar in the desert is perfect for those of us who are snow bound. See you all soon!

I will not be able to attend this year. Sometimes life just gets in the way. Playing at the show these last 5 years has made me a better player. I practice all year for the show and my technique and tone has gotten better each year. I thank Billy and Joe and the rest of the bunch from the SWSGA for allowing me to get up there and trying to sound good. Well now I am working so much with 2 different bands that I just can't break away. If that ain't a catch 22 I don't know what is. Most of all I wish I could be there to congratulate my mentor and friend Terry Bethel for finally getting his due and becoming a Hall of Famer. Yea Terry, it was way overdue. Anyway I hope to be there next year so ya'all have a great time, I know you will.

I am really looking forward to the show... Haven't been to a steel guitar show since the West Coast Steel guitar show in the late 80"s? Should be a great hang...

I am looking foward to this convention it's my first time to make this one.

Looking forward to the show! Joe please have my interpreter standing by.

Really looking forward to the show and seeing old friends and enjoying all the pickers...Yeah b0b I mean you too!!


I was hoping to take in the Saturday events but my band has 2 gigs that day...go figger!!

Shapin up to be bigger and better one again

Bill- your interpreter has a new position so will not be able to be there much Thur or Fri - but the rest of the time she will be. - her new title weighs about 2 pounds - I can not get it straight.

Look forward to seein ya Jack it has been to long.

Glad to here we are several first timmers - I have been told by several that they are coming for the first time.

Going to try to have 30 seats and effects boxes - busy busy busy but it always is this time of year.

Wow,
Another year I won't get to hear all the good steel music. We had to cancel due to a financial problem that just popped up. Oh well better luck next time.
