Thanks Marcia !! I hope all the steel players from all around will join us !! Always room for one more and those jams are a lot of fun !! I'm looking forward to seeing all our old and new steeler friends , pedal and non-pedal !! See you all there !! Eddie "C" ( the old non-pedal geezer )

Looking forward to the meeting. I will have a name and tel.# of a double neck Shobud for sale. Also, Paul Kirsch, (former bass player for Angela West), has asked me to announce, "Steel players in the area of Boston`s south shore that might be interested in jamming or joining a band. Steel players who are still learning would be welcome".

See you at the meeting.

Should be another great meeting. If I remember right there are some important issues to go over from the last business meeting so if you can make it we sure would like to see everyone there. Looking forward to seeing everyone there. God Bless

Yea, sure. The only reason you want to be there Roger is to STEEL the show!! But, I guess that goes for all of us!!!! All kidding aside . . .
It'll be good to get back. Sorry I missed the last meeting. My life played a good joke on me back then and had me laughing so hard that I was in stiches!
See you all there!

Jake and I hope to make it to the meeting this time. Hopefully the boss won't send me out of town. Looking forward to seeing everyone again.

bump!

Hope you had a Great meeting and a Great Jam.Keep those Steel Guitars working and don't give them a Break.
Manny Escobar I read what you said about me in the RICMA news letter.I do not follow anyone because I'm a leader not a follower. Have a great Week and week end and keep STEELIN don't get caught.

I must confess. I guessed at who made the first move back and forth. And you HAVE been a leader with one exception. When our late buddy John Jiacoveli iniated the first steel show, you followed with more. I hope you don`t take offense with me because I referred to you as the "Moving Maniac".
I can just see the headlines now "SAM WHITE ATTACKS MANNY ESCOBAR FOR LABELING HIM THE "MOVING MANIAC".
In other news, Sept. 19, 2010 was the date picked for the next RISGA show at the Liberal Club in Fall River, Mass.

Hey Manny there is no Problem and I think you better do some checking as NESGA has their Steel Show September 19TH at the American Legion Post 15 in East Greenwich and all the out of State Steel players that were at the one Anna and I ran will all be coming again and two more of my friends one from here in North Carolina and another From Veinna VA.They also have some new Steel Player members that will be playing plus yours Truely will be there.There was no Steel Show in R.I until Anna and I started RISGA because the one you say John had was not a Steel Show it was four Steel Players that Showed up to play with the band that played at Reflections and Andy Perry was the Steel player in that band and you and two others showed up and Bob told you guys you could play because John wanted that.
