Kurt, you look great!
I don't remember all those lights.

Are you guys wearing pants?

NICE SOCKS!

No pants allowed in the sound booth<font size="1" color="#8e236b"><p align="center">[This message was edited by Bill Ferguson on 01 September 2006 at 12:35 PM.]</p></FONT>

Here's a pic of the Big E, his new Zumsteel, and builder, Bruce Zumsted


More to come

Here's a pic of Ron & Leslie Elliott. NO I will not let him turn knobs

I have a very bad connection tonight,
Just my luck when the big E was on stage,then to cap it when the connection became good they cut the main stage.
hope everyone else is enjoying the show.
Billy

Don't know why. I have many emails stating how good it sounded

Here's a couple of new pics.

Ernesto is messing with our broadcast. NY is being hammered and it is effecting our OUTPUT. Hopefully Ernesto will move out to sea for this weekend.

Miss Lana

Darn Ernesto! Been waiting all week to hear Buddy, and the stream was chopped up so bad, had me cussin a blue streak...C'est la vie.

Really chopped up bad here. Will come and go. Sound like Iam missing another great show.

Usless here. I wasted a lot of time trying to get it. Too bad it is a requirement not to have the entire show broadcast. Will it be played again later.

The server for steelradio.com is in New York, right in the middle of storm Ernesto. The storm has caused many problems with the broadcast. Hopefully it will pass and all will clear up.

Plus according to the meter, over 1 million were trying to log on at the same time.

Hey Bill,

Everything is sounding great here in SC. I hate I couldn't make it this year, tell everybody I said hey.

See ya soon,
Jim

Bill-It was breaking up here so much that I couldn't much hear anything with all the Buffering.

I was lucky enough to hear Buddy Emmons on 2 songs and that was a pleasure. He has The greatest tone of them all. He has Still got it all together, and hasn't lost a thing..Wow! I wonder what equipment he was using?...al

Now comming though.... clear as a great steel guitar. Thanks!!!!! loving every min. of it.
Wishing I could have made it.

Hi Bill. you folks did a great job mixing the sound to the web for what I could get. I only could get a little of Buddy and Ron with lots of pauses in there. Thanks for the great pictures you posted also.

Hi Bill,

Sounds great in Nova Scotia Canada. Keep up the great! work.

Good morning. Thought you might like to see a few pics I took last night and this morning.

Ron Elliott did a patriotic show and used a Marine Corp Cadet Flag Corp


Here's one of moderators, Miss Donna


Also Judy & Randy Beavers


Stay tuned

I'm trying here in ND, but all I get is intermittent buzzing and background noise. There's the faintest trace of indistinguishable music in the background, but that's all.

I only have dial-up - does that prevent me getting it, or is it the weather?

Thanks - have a great weekend!

Roger

Roger, I'm getting the same thing with a high speed cable connection.

2:20 Eastern time - It finally cleared up and I just caught the last part of Herby Remmington's set.<font size="1" color="#8e236b"><p align="center">[This message was edited by Jack Stoner on 02 September 2006 at 11:11 AM.]</p></FONT>

Now I'm getting moments of clear speech, but with big gaps (is that 'buffering'?) - almost unlistenable, it's so frustrating.

Right now, Tom Bradshaw's daughter seems to be speaking - on and off!

What do I do to get it continuously?

Thanks, Jack...
