Bob T., Just wondering how Gary is getting on. I heard about his hear attack, are you guys back in action? Hope so. Too good. All the best ..... Tom

As a side note folks, Bob Taillefer is the producer of Northern Steel. A ton of great steel players that know there craft. This album should be in everyones collection. ....Tom

Let's not forget Burke Carrol.
Saw him twice this past week with the BeBop Cowboys and also with Scotty Campbell here in Toronto.

Count me in from the WEst Coast, or is that the WET Coast? regards Hank

Thanks John for adding my name. I could add a lot more as I use to give seminars in Alta, B.C. and Sask. I had a list of Canadian players that had approximatly 250 on it. It was hard to keep up as some would pass on or move and would lose touch with them. However because of health I don't do the seminar thing anymore, but still do one on one in my shop. Jeff Bradshaw has to be one of the top, if not the top in this country. My list was of the three provinces that I mentioned above as I stayed out of Al Brisco and Wayne Links Territorie.

I enjoyed this post, and waited until now to point out Tommy's original question is

<SMALL>" how many Canadian guys/gals are on this forum.</SMALL>

I guess that number can be found by adding up the Canadian responders.

Sure are a lot. I guess we need something to do in the long winter nights.

Hi Hank...Welcome to the Forum! I tried to e-mail you however your address (on this site) seems to be incorrect. Anyway, if you'd care to e-mail me...

< keokilake@hotmail.com >

I'd love to hear from you. Lots of old memories and some up to date happenings.

I guess I'm one too. Hank I didn't realize you still lived in Surrey. I'm living down south near Crescent Beach. Are you doing much playing these days. I'm playing quite a bit, mostly legions. I filled in for you with Elmer Tippe at the P.N.E. many years ago.

George M, We're close in Minnesota......but not that close! Ha! But my Grandmother was Canadian and one of her sons, my Uncle Vern Eide was from Alberta, Red Lake area and served in the RCAF. Vern is an "old-time" Hawaiian player (Gibson Grande), along with just about anything else!
