Fred, thanks so much for your hard work to make such a great show. This is always a time to hear and see your idols up close and in person. Jack don't get too close!! See you all there, Bob

Fred puts on a first class show. I hope y'all will be there.

Mike

I always look forward to the Lexington show. I will have my display room as I have in years gone by. I will have on display and let you play the "WORLDS UGLYIST GUITAR" as was noted on the forum. I am refering to the "FIBERGLASS PEDESONIC" I built in1968. I have many unusual guitars in my collection and will bring some if enough people want to come by and play an old Multi-Chord etc. any suggestions?? Ed Naylor Steel Guitar Works.

Looking forward to this show!! It is always a good one!! Stop by and say "hello", I will have a table there with some ZB's.

Greg

I've heard great things about this show for years and am delighted to be playing it this year. Fred, thanks so much for inviting me! Since it's on Halloween, shouldn't we propose that all players appear in costume? Maybe I'll come as Smiley Roberts.

Fred we have our room for both days , and i am looking forward to the show. we live in Columbus Ohio. do you have directions to the show ? Thanks Gary.

Count me in, my room is reserved.

Mike, I hope to meet you and hear you play this year. I missed you last year by only attending Saturday's portion of the show.

Jim, I'm delighted to get to hear you play again. I'll see you there.

I'm working on some of the "uninitiated" to get them to this show.

Sam - this will be held at the Kentucky Inn, southwest of downtown Lexington a couple of miles on South Broadway - specifically just off the corner of Broadway and Waller Avenue, across the street from Saint Joseph Hospital.

Any suggestions for alternative motels nearby, with reasonable rates, as I called the Kentucky Inn today and they wouldn't give me a reservation there? I know there is a Holliday Inn and others off exits of I 75
Larry

Larry, try The Springs Motel just up the street....a mile or 2 from the Ky Inn.

Fred,
Something is wrong with my computer and I cannot send you an Email by clicking on your link. It freezes up my computer. However, if you would shoot me an email I can get through that way. I need to talk to you about a matter.
Thanks,
BB

WOW! What a lineup. I spent 15 years around that part of the planet; wish I could be there to hear some of my biggest heros.

Tomorrow night! Well, all right! It'll be my first time in the great state of Kentucky. Am looking forward to it! Hopefully giant solar flares don't cause steel guitars to detune!
