Bring your steel, bring a dish!

Jake and I will be there!

Looking forward to seeing everyone. Only a month to go before the big show. Maybe we'll get a bit of a preview of some of the tunes you'll play.

Definitely will be there !!! Time to start practicing !!! What songs did I say I'd do ???? Have to get my steel out of the Hock Shop !!! TTYL !!! Old Geezer , Eddie "C"

Eddie, you are too funny. While you are getting your steel out of hock, don't forget your chair...You don't want Manny messing with your seat!

Packing up the gear now. Can't wait to hear what Eddie has in store for us this time.

Hey Eddie - gonna get the pedals out of hock too? You always seem to forget them.

See ya'll tomorow!

For the circle jam at the meeting I propose that for homework, we work on George Strait`s "The Chair".

Hey Manny I think you should have Eddie practice He needs No Rocking Chair. HA Marcia Please don't for get to bring up what I asked you about in a E-mail.
Thanks you.

RISGA had a great meeting today. We welcomed two new players. Chris came down from New Hampshire to run through some of the music with the members that will be playing in the show. Thanks Chris, hope your back is better. (Hope Jessie cashes that check for you.)

We have set a date for next years show, it will be Sunday, September 18, 2011.

See everyone at this years show, 4 more weeks.

We had a great meeting today. Lots of good music, good food and most of all, good people! Eddie always amazes me with what he can do with his double neck Rick. Rogers tone was to die for today, and such great execution! I believe we all had a good time today and I am greatful that Marcia does what she does to keep things running so well.
We are all looking forward to the show too. Just four weeks away!

We had a real fun and great group there today !!! I thought there were 3 new members ?? AND Manny let me play his 33 string - one neck pedal steel today !!! Only he has 3 strings in the space where I have one !! I really clunked on his steel but it wuz fun !!! Looking forward to the "BIG SHOW" on Sunday , Sept. 19th !!! Hope you all come down !!! See ya later !!! Old Geezer , Eddie "C"

Eddie, My guitar has built-in "idiot licks". It is not smooth and slanty like your non-pedal gem. We had a lot of fun horsing around. Now we have to get serious for the show Sept 19th. RISGA rules.

I had a good time at the meating some times I get lost a lot of the time and it's still fun looking forward to playing at the show.
