Ricky -- do you have an old ShoBud steel bar you use?

Thanks, Ricky. I ordered it. I can hardly wait! Happy New Year.

Hey Al; I do have a shobud bar....but I don't use it.
I use ONLY my 15/16"dia BJS Bar that Bill made for me....I love it and it's the best bar I've ever had in my hand.
Thanks Glen; you'll love it...

...well, there goes my wedding present for you. At least you have one! I, too, have a BJS, but I've taken to using my BJS lap bar (2 7/8" x .75") even for pedal steel, as I'm not a wide-grip chorder.

I have the CD by Miss Leslie and had the pleasure of listening to the whole group recently at the SETX Steel Guitar Club meeting in Katy Texas. Ricky played the equipment in the photo above and believe me it is a beautiful setup and WHAT A SOUND!! Ricky, Congratulations to you and Miss Leslie on your engagement. May your lives be long and joyful and may you make more beautiful music together.

Way to go Rick and Leslie. Congratulations. Love ya'll, Jody.

Thanks Al; that is a nice thought, but you hang onto your Sho~bud bar....they are getting harder and harder to come by.
Thanks Jody; we love you too.
Doug; those are some VERY kind words my friend, you are so supportive. The wish that Me and Leslie continue to make beautiful music together; means a lot to me, and that is my Dream in every way; thank you so much.
Ricky

I have both Miss Leslie's CD's. Very nice stuff if you're into traditional country!

Thanks Donny; but there is actually 3 Miss Leslie CD's in total.
Honky Tonk Revival.
Honky Tonk Happy Hour(live from Continental Club).

Ricky

Ricky, Congratulations to you and Miss Leslie. May you both have a Happy life together,
and Happy New Year to all you wonderful folks.

Thanks for the Great Offer. I can't wait to hear it.

Carl

Thanks Carl that is mighty nice of you.

The Whiskey/Wine cd is STILL in my cd player. It is a humbling experience to hear Ricky's steel guitar savy in action. True vintage Shobud tone spoken from a Fender Twin and JBL K130's--don't get much better. Leslie nails the '60's honkytonk sound to a "T".

Thanks James for your un-dieing support and for the awefully kind words.....Love ya.
Ricky

Thanks Ricky and congratulations

Thanks for the support everyone; and if you like it, tell somebody.
Ricky

Like passing out musical buisness cards.

You are so right James.
You'd never think to charge someone for a business card you would hand them right???
This is something that has turned a "Lightbulb" on in Leslie's head. "How are they going to know us; hear us, if they don't have the music"....>so we want folks to have her music; like the way someone wants someone to have their business card> Great Analogy my brother.
As a further note. We just got contacted by "The Washington Post"; as they want to do a story in their music section on this.
And now on the internet; there are now becoming more and more write-ups on this event as we speak.
I guess this is something folks don't normally do(cause it's usually all about making money); well we are certainly not about the money as you can tell...ha.....To us; it's "All about the music".
