The Steel Guitar Forum

Gee I thought he was seducted a long time ago.

I met Bobbe at a Gospel Steel Show in Columbus last year and had him take my LDG with him to restore it. Needless to say he did a FANTASTIC Job!!!!! But that is secondary to him being a wonderful person.
In my honest opinion Bobbe is one of the
most pleasent people in the Music Industry.
I think he should be in the Hall Of Fame as well. He has done major things for the Steel Industry.
His time is Long Overdue!!!

Love Ya Bobbe

Tell you what.

For the way he treated me the week I was there, I don't care if he EVER gets in that basment vault.

He's in My Personal Hall of Fame.

Anybody gets it rolling, and I'll sure sign on.

Bobbe is a guy's guy and has literally forgotten more than most of us will ever know.

He knows how to hire office staff too

Can't say enough about him. I'm still floored by my last week's trip to Nashville.

I disrupted his business for half a week, he sent an amp and VP home to my motel for me, all but didn't accept my money for stuff I bought, and tried his best to set me up with.... ( nevermind.. )

My thanks, and more are forthcoming.

...first, let me say that Bobbe gets my vote...but "why", you ask....objectively, what exactly has Bobbe brought to the table to put steel guitar on the map. Two things.

Cobra Coil Strings....


...and whatever this thing is...



...(I owe you a phone call, Bobbe)...

Sure
I would like to see Bobbe setting right next to me,,he's good lookin enough and he is a one of a kind of a musician and a friend to all of us...Hey Pat Burns,,where you been buddy,,,e mail me when you can.

Bobbe see you on the wall.

I agree with this topic if he´ll publish his "7 Secrets" about Emmons Push Pull Steels.

Well, here's how I really feel about him.



And no, I'm not...

but iff'n I was...

Many more pix to come by the end of the week.

"Thanks a Lot" Bobbe.

got my vote ! If he can play steel ! that's
even better . I'm for committing him !

He has my vote! I met Bobbe a couple of times when he had "Steel Guitar World" just out side of Nashville back in the 80s, I left with a big impression of him, not only as a musician but as a person as well.
Keep up the good work Bobbe, you have more fans than you think.

How can we help make it happen? Above, it was suggested that we start a letter-writing campaign. Any other ideas?

A letter writting campain won't do it.

Only a proper nomination will be considered.

The procedure is explained here: http://scottysmusic.com/abouthof.htm

The "Chairman of the Board" and hes not in the HOF ?? It sure is, about time. Mr.Steel Guitar has my vote. bob

Bobbe Should have benn there years ago.I brought this up about two years ago.
Bobbe, "Your The Man" You have my vote also.
Dan

Thanks, Joey.

It would take a book to answer the seven questions. How about if each question was answered by one person? Or if there are more than seven people, there could be groups for each question. Who knows the most about Bobbe's career (other than Paris Hilton)? If he's ever been nominated before, then a lot of the work is already done.

Does anybody know how long a nomination statement usually is? Do they make available the nomination papers of previous HOFers?

We have to convince a small board of directors, so one thing to do is figure out how to convince that handful of guys.

A discussion of the politics of the situation might be helpful in determining what to say and how to say it, but I don't think such a discussion should be done on a public forum like this one.

I would think we need to get one leader and preferably at least six followers. I'm a newbie, so I'm out, although I can help with the writing after you experts put the info together. Do we have any volunters here? Do you know of any people we should ask (besides Paris Hilton)? Has anybody here been involved in a HOF nomination before? Do we know anybody who has? <font size="1" color="#8e236b"><p align="center">[This message was edited by Darryl Hattenhauer on 05 April 2006 at 06:56 PM.]</p></FONT><font size="1" color="#8e236b"><p align="center">[This message was edited by Darryl Hattenhauer on 05 April 2006 at 06:57 PM.]</p></FONT>

Bobbe meets all the criteria and then some.
He has world class chops, an incomparable body of recorded work spanning 50 some years, and more workshop and tutorial videos than everyone else combined. He has done a great deal to promote Steel Guitar, both pedal and non-pedal and he has significantly helped just about every steel guitarist on the planet at one time or other - yours truly included. He sells them, he restores them and he repairs them in the world's largest steel guitar store. He's every steeler's best friend.

Inductive reasoning - this year it should be Bobbe Seymour in the HOF!

Bobbe, you belong in the Steel Guitar Hall Of Fame. You have my vote!
I'm glad you come up to Gary's Gospel Steel Jubilee year before last.
