Hi Larry

Hello good buddy. Parkersburg here, the sinus Capital of the world..
B.Jenkins

Im from Charleston WV.

Just another pedal pusher from Charleston,

Is that all? got to be more than that.

I'm not from there but I lived there for 4 years while going to school in Montgomery. I absolutely loved the people there. So I guess I would be called a "want to be"?

My wife is from Good Hope (just south of Clarksburg) so I have some relation to W.VA. pickers. And, my wife sings and plays rhythm guitar and bass.

My wife is from Keyser West Virgina, and we live real close to WV, but over in the high tax state of Maryland. But I love WV just as much as most West Virginians do. We are up here in the Maryland Mountains, just so close-------------

Jennings, What part of West Va. Is that you are in
Florida? Does this make you and Jack Stoner Kin now?

Larry princton wva here i play friday and sat night at a place called mtn man music barn nice place no drinking or smoking we play traditional country

There are more steel players in this state than the ones who have posted. I'm from the northeastern corner of southern West Virginia ,aka Lewisburg. I play with the group Taylor Made based out of Beckley. It's a great band with absolutely superb sibling trio harmony. Most of us were influenced by the late Gary Boggs or Russ Hicks in some way or another. lol don

Don i had the chance to talk with you when you were playing with taylor made down in Mullen wva

20 min east of Clarksburg

Mike TAYLOR MADE is opening for Ronnie MacDowel at the Dog Wood Festival May the tenth hope to see you sorry I had to leave so quickly last time. wished I'd gone to your place and hung out. Larry, where are you thinking of moving to in WV? Don

Don you are more than welcome to come down any time bring your steel or you can play my mullen mike

Hey Mike thought you lived near Mullen WV. Any how I'm sure you live very near your Mullen. Don Drummer. Stil have my Emmons Legrande, Steel Guitar Black Box, two Yamaha SPX 90 and two nash 112 I guess this info goes with my name as I am a new guy posting and i'm learnig to use the internet like I've learned to play steel... slowly lol Don

Don, tell wendy one of the Barcus twins said hello she should remember me or us lol. Taylor made came from the county they lived in Taylor County. but Im sure you know that already. Joe, she may know me as Lynn

What about the Creeper?

hey joe, i'll be seeing wendy and the brothers soon to rehearse i'll pass along the shout out. TAYLOR MADE sure is an improvement over the first name: I-79, yeesh! the release of the single titled Heavy Duty Beauty is scheduled to take place in april . It's an A team Nashville project with Mike Johnson on steel. His solo is great and features a totally wicked open string bar hammering part that i don't think i've ever heard on mainstream country radio. don
hey jim, good question. i always wondered where he was out of in this state. read about him on this forum once. heard of him in the early seventy's. you were referring to the steel player right?
