Glad to hear that you're having a steel guitar club down there. This is the first time I've heard of your club. Please forgive me if I've missed it. I belong to the Ozark Steel Guitar Association. The club has been going for several years. The last 3 years we've been meeting bi-monthly in Branson at the Community Center. The last 2 years our club has had 2 shows, one in February and the other in July. We have several pro pickers that join us on these bi-monthly jam sessions. We usually have around 10 to 12 pickers! We've had the privilege of attending the Siloam Springs shows for the past 6 years and have really enjoyed it. They have a good strong club there! Hope things are going great for your club! We would enjoy hearing about it. And come visit us in Branson sometime.

It's good you extend a welcome to other steel club members. We open ours to others, also. Anyone is welcome to come and play in our bi-monthly jams. We have people from Texas, Arkansas, Nebraska, Oklahoma,
Kansas, and of course, Missouri. We have over 250 members in 40 states, and 8 foreign countries. We'll be glad to see you in Branson on the 24th of July. We always have a great show every July! I'm the chaplain so come by and let's get acquainted.

Hey Rudy, Ken and the rest of you CASGA guys. Had a great time Sunday at the meeting with the fellowship and the picking. I really enjoyed getting to play alongside Gene Simmons. I've known Gene a long time and he's always been a very tasteful and smooth player and one of my favorites. I wish the club the best and the rest of you guys around Arkansas and bordering states need to check out the CASGA.
