Special thanks to the outstanding musicians and singers and back-up band for another wonderful show. We had the best of the best again this year.
Good crowds both days enjoyed the tender touch of nostalgia in the air, as performers played musical tributes to beloved members of the steel family who have passed on.
Norma Jean thanked everyone in a previous post. Please let me add that it's always a pleasure and delight when Buck Grantham, Roy Rosetta and Rob Parker perform their musical magic. Thank you so much, gentlemen, for sharing your amazing gifts with us again this year.
Jerry Newberry and family - what an inspiration you are! Congrats on your award-winning bass, Donna, and thanks for the beautiful songs. Austin, you took us to a new place, and all we could do was hold on. Outstanding.
Very special thanks, as Norma said, to Donna, Dana, Clara and the other wonderful cooks and helping hands for the delicious food and beverages. (I wish I'd taken a photograph of those tables groaning with food.) Ladies, you make all the difference in the world.
Thanks to Norma Jean and the SSSGC for keeping it real, and making it count. Well done, everyone!

Thanks for the pictures Lynn, they are great! It was nice getting to visit with you a little this weekend. We always meet on the forum, but rarely get to visit face to face.

The pictures almost make it look like Mullen gathering. I showed them to my D-11 and it made her proud. Thanks for the pix. |

Lynn, We had a very good time at Siloam Springs this year, even though I missed Saturday ( was out catching fish ). Always glad to help when we can with food. The pictures are great too. Thanks for posting them. We will see you at Baxter this fall if not before.
