Hey Rick,
What kind of Steel Guitar did you have hidden behind the blanket Saturday night on the Penny Gilley Show?

I watched the show also. I enjoyed the show and like the way the program interviews other acts in the area. I was wondering what kind of steel it was and why would they cover it with a blanket. Just never seen a blanket placed like that.

I watched the show last night and it looked like he was in a wheelchair. It looked like a large wheel to his left side and possibly the handles. I could
be wrong??? I'll have to watch the rerun again.

Just stumbled across this thread...

In reviewing some of my DVR recordings of the program, I was wondering that same thing. From what I could see, Rick was in a wheel chair. Did Rick have an accident of some sort? Whatever that case, I certainly hope he'll be OK and that whatever it is, is only temporary.

I had to become a memeber of the forum just so i could thank all the well wishers who watched me play on the Penny Gilley show!
I was hit my a drunk lady talkin n her cell phone head on in April. Broke my ankle on one side and my knee cap on the other. 2 casts for about 4 month then braces and therapy.
Penny Giley was so sweet to me though and wanted me on the TV show, so I rigged up my BMI singe neck with C6 tuning and took the pedals off so I could push my wheel chair thru as my legs both had to be elevated and did my best to play.
I'm back with the show, both live and the TV show (we taped 5 new shows last Tuesday) and play both lead guitar and steel guitar as her new budget wouldn't allow both, very slow in Branson! last I heard the last 2 months are down 400,000 tourists!
but I'm back doing 3 gigs a day and altho I get a little stiff in the legs, I'm glad to be pickin again
Thanx again for your concerns.
your friend, Rick Quincey
PS and thanx for the nice words Tracey!
