I will be playing on Rockpalast, with the German Country-Rockband Norrin Radd. The show will be in Cologne, aug 28
It will be broadcasted end of september, at least half an hour live.
Another exposure from steelguitar in a pop-orientated TV-show.

Tom Astor and Truck Stop and Western Union with Larry Schuba is still around here with great success. They are the leading country music bands and playing real good music. But many amateur bands here also playing great, but they do not have the producers to get them in the first airplay charts. The german country scene is still alive. But only a few playing good steel guitar, a very few only. German country music is more a power-music full of loud noises and very often low quality. I can really tell this, because I play every weekend with many bands... I know the scene here very well...

yeah,I remember some bands playing at the Oklahoma Saloon,and they were real country bands,no pedal steel,guy played steel guitar,I think it was a triple neck or something.If some of you guys get to the Oklahoma Saloon or Rattlesnake tell Bruno I said Hi,I`m sure he wouldn`t rember me but I played there few times,it was a country band from Croatia called "Dallas".
Sincerely,Damir
