BOO

This is going to prove to be a great event and something to remember for a long time. So slip on a new set of strings and come on out. Stop judging whether you are a good steel player or bad steel player. You are a steel player and we all have a style and a level of play. This is a jam, not a contest...If it were a contest I wouldn't bother to go, because i simply couldn't win. I have jammed with many of these folks before and found them to be a lot of fun and cuttin up...but got a chance also to be part of some great steelers too. At my age I gotta have the fun cause you just never know when it all will end. So come on out and have a little fun in your life. Boo will be providing additional information regarding the jam as time draws nearer. He's a good man with a good heart and plays one of the nicest steel sounds you'll hear...so let's give him our support.

Ray Walker

^^^^^^^^^^ Bump^^^^^

Bryan Adams just informed me on the phone that he will be at this jam if he has to crawl...and may bring a a friend or two with him (HEHE). Folks it's gonna be a fun jam. Hey Boo...you got a fax hooked up to your phone...ya wanna just get an answering machine like the rest of us????

BOO

Man I wish I could make it! It'll be a great weekend for you guys. Somebody tape it please
The MASGA can't get a newsletter out on time so you guys need to call as many pickers you know in the area up there and tell them to call who they know (this is called networking
I think). You won't believe the players that will come out of woodwork. The stats for Masga that only 20-30% of the steel players have computers w/intrenet access. Help Boo out by calling everybody you know. Thanks
Skip

Only cpl weeks before jam!

I'm "Steel" planinning on it.,.and bringing a few friends....I think that I played there a million years ago. Maybe I'll do some shopping at the commissary whule I'm there!!!

^^^^^^^ UP ^^^^^^^^
gettin closer!!

Hey Boo!
It looks like everything is falling inplace for your upcoming Jam. I sure hope everyone is making phone calls in the Md, De,and Penn areas to let all those steelplayers know that there is going to be a steelguitar Jam in their traveling area. It would be a real shame for someone to miss out on this great event by not knowing about it. I know there are plenty of steel players and steelguitar enthusiast that would like to come if they only knew about it (everyone doesn't have a computer and won't know about the Jam unless all us take control and make some phone calls). I encourage everyone to make a phone call to someone you know that loves steelguitar and some good ole Country Music, even if they don't play. Everyone needs to come out and support Boo's first Jam. (Lord Willing)I plan on being there after hunting all week on the Eastern Shore MD. Boo, I will be there to support you and help you do anything that needs to be done.

Boo and Ray, I just printed out a copy of this thread, and unless you guys teach me all your steel licks, I'm sending a copy to your wives! Ha!

Yep and I did the same thing Skip so now they better tap the show for us. I will not be making it after all.I just got out of the hospital from having a Cath and I have to rest up for the Trip to Florida for Christmas to be with the other Daughter and grand Kids.I have been doing a lot of traveling and have to take a break.I will make the next one for sure.
