Steel Guitar Represented Well at Festival de Crappone 2012!

Post by Jake L »

I just got back home late last night, and I want to tell you that I heard some outstanding steel guitar work at the festival. Geoff Queen with Bruce Robinson and Kelly Willis - master of style and touch! Dave Biller was his usual bad a$$ self playing behind Amber Digby, on a guitar that he was not used to. Some outstanding non pedal work by Matt Thomas with 2 Tons of Steel. And a great job as well by French steeler Woody Wood with Eric Sitbon and The Ghost Band. There was a lady steel player with the Croatian band Crooks and Straights. I did not get her name, but she did a great job as well. What a great experience!

Jake, buddy, thank you so much for letting me bang around on your beautiful axe. That Mullen was SO nice! I'm a new fan. I was really stressed about the whole situation but it worked out way better than I could have hoped, all thanks to you, my friend. I apologize for missing the bus and not getting to catch your set but I sure hope to hear you pick soon and do some more hangin' with ya. your pal, dB

It was my pleasure, Dave. Apparently though, my discovery wasn't in "record" mode during your set, so I can't retrieve any of your licks! Dang it! Give me a call sometime. I'd love to see y'all play again, or just sit down and swap licks.
