I had the pleasure of sitting in on PSG with the "Seldom Seen Band" at the 125th Year Town Celebration for Renwick Iowa on June 8th. A big crowd was on hand all weekend for the festivities. I traveled up from Texas at the invitation of my good friend Verle Tate (bass player for the band). Jeff Halverson is the regular steel player so he and I swapped leads during the two hour show. Jeff plays a beautiful old Sho-Bud S-10 3X3 and really does a good job. America is still alive and kicking in the small towns. Thanks to the folks in IOWA for appreciating the music.

Doug, you are invited to Ia. anytime and hope you are treated well. We have a very strong steel community here and you should visit more. In Feb. I know it is winter in Ia. but we have a very good steel show in Waterloo, and April in Davenport. We have big name steelers come to our show and it also gives all the midwest steelers a chance to shine. We welcome you to join us and thanks for visiting us this summer.
