Ok, don't laugh. I'm stoked! I've had the pleasure of playing the Opry many times, and on almost every instrument, but Friday July 27 I will be playing steel for the first time on the Opry. I'm playing pedal steel with David Lee Murphy filling in for my good buddy Jimmy Clark, and yes, I will be playing the Sho-Bud...... MAVERICK! More like a "recovering" Maverick.  It's a '69 I rebuilt and raised a-la Don Warden. |

Yeah, this will prolly get moved to "humor" now........ 
It USED to be a Maverick......new guts underneath, new pickup, new keys, stripped and buffed the endplates.........it's pretty sharp, and sounds amazing. But what do I know, I play b*njo!!! |

Is this scheduled to be on TV Scott?
I don't see much on the tv anymore with the Opry.
I just remember when they used to start off Saturday night with 'backstage at the Opry' with Porter Wagner, and then go to the regular show.
I don't see that anymore.
Maybe I just am not looking for it close enough on the schedule.

Unfortunately they only broadcast the Saturday night Opry, and only 1 hour of that, correct me if my info is out of date please guys. However, they still air the whole thing on WSM. Let's pray THAT doesn't change...........Ok, I'm movin this one to humor b0b!  |
