I remember a phrase written on this forum that has been burned into my mind.. It will stay in my head for the rest of my days...
A few years ago,Bobbe Seymour wrote in a reply to someone's thread..
"I am a fan of ALL steel players"
THAT phrase is a small stroke of genious and reflects my thoughts on the subject..
I like EVERY steel player everywhere... bob

A person who play this wonderful instrument must be loved. Sometimes I do not like the way I play myself, but what the heck, I just try again and then suddenly it sounds a little better.
I just heard a guy named "Mark Horn" on Steel Radio. Wow! He played so nice! Who is he?

Mark is an excellent steel player from Germany. I saw him at ISGC last week and had the pleasure of sharing the stage with him at the Irish Steel Guitar show a few years ago.

I can't remember hearing a player I didn't derive at least some enjoyment from hearing, and most of the time I've been around another steel player it's been a good listening experience. It's a great way to compare his licks to your own, or get ideas for improving something you've been doing the same way for years, and if you're lucky you can leave the room with his good stuff imbedded in your head to utilize later (and claim as your own 
).
I've always loved the sound of steel, but it took me a few years to actually start enjoying the sound of my own playing. Part of that process was learning to stop obsessing over each little mistake and forgiving myself for not nailing it every single time...that was about the time I realized that most people who were listening didn't notice anyway when I missed that one note or ended a slide a little on the sharp side.
I mostly congratulate myself when I get through the night feeling like I've done a decent job of complimenting what the whole band was doing, like a member of the team.
Since I learned to play with that mindset, I've noticed that I get a lot more solo's thrown my way.
