The Mid Canada Steel Guitar Show is only two weeks away. April 25 & 26 in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada.
Hope to meet some of you formites there. I'll be the fat guy hobbling around with the cane.
Should be the best year to date.
Billy Jones, I put your tuning on the Canuck-Pro. Maybe you'll take it for a ride!!!!!
Let's hear from you!!!!

WOW!
The Fabulous Five!!!!!
Jerry Dube From Hinckley Mn. will be there. What a smooth steel man. Quiet guy, except behind the steel. Missed him last year.

You mean Grampaw Jones. He looks sly, but he's really harmless, until he gets behind a steel guitar.
You got to look out for the guy in the centre

Hi Ya'll
I'll be in the Regina area for some session work on the 19th and the 20th. Do I need reservations to attend the show? How much are the tickets? Are there any rooms at or near the show? Ah, Shucks, somebody e-mail me with the info.

Billy
Just go straight east 'till you hit Winnipeg, stop off for 2 days and take in the show, then you can go straight south to Texas. I think that's a good plan????

You can count me in... I'd love to see this show. I've heard good things about it and now I'll get to see for myself. I'll be coming up through Winnipeg on the way up.
I'll post my schedule as soon as I'm sure of the route.
PS: If you need a singer, lead guitarist or bass player on the show, I'd be happy to fill in anytime.
God Bless You All,
Billy Phelps

I just got an e-mail from Patty Phelps (his wife?). Billy will not make the steel show in Wpg. His mother died and he's on his way back home.
I'm going to post this under "our Extended Family" if no one else has already done so.

Joe, the new Hilton is as smooth as a 21 year old single malt.

Shucks fellas, I'm leavin' in the AM. It's a long way for me, about 1400 clicks round trip. I should be there sometime in the early evening. A day early to rest up. I'm gettin' old ya know. It also looks like I'm comin' alone. I'll be playing on my 10 string non-pedal Carlyn again this year. This damned little thing grows on me. Youse guys take it easy and be careful.

Got a gig to play tonight, so my steel should be still warm for tomorrow night.
Billy Jones should be pulling into Winnipeg in the next hour or so.
Dean neeley has hit the sack already. He has to rise at 4am to catch the plane. Arrives in Winnipeg at 10:30 am.
Sir Geo will be leaving in the morning. 12 hour drive.
Man! It'll be good to see them again.

Yes, Joe, it's always great to see all the friends made in Winnipeg over the years. I'm all loaded up, and will leave right after my school bus route. (up at 04:30 and will be rolling towards Winnipeg at 09:00)
