A few days ago we played Hula Blues in one of Moscow night clubs. I played on a Fender Stringmaster D8 26". Filming with the phone.

And this Steel Guitar Rag , but in another club.
Here I tried to add to the accompaniment of little Latino.

You sound really good, Alex. Nice feel, fluid style.
I especially like your sound on Steel Guitar Rag. Do you get good audiences there? You are the Russian Ambassador of Hawaiian Steel Guitar!

Thank you,Mike! Interestingly ,Hulu blues I played on the club Fender de luxe, and SGR on his Roland Cube 40 xl together Boss Me-70. Good to hear the difference between the lamp and the transistor.. Solo concerts me yet,but I think that now is not necessary. The more far no one of us knows where is the Embassy Hawaiian Steel Guitar)))
It's only a suggestion...............

Great stuff Alexander. You have a terrific feel for the style and instrument. I'm very impressed.
Good band too. Funny to see that the bass player is using a Kala uke bass. Sounds good!
Best of luck to you and your band. Hope you get lots of gigs!

Fun stuff, Alexander. That's a real party band. You know, I have always thought that Okolehao was just Hawaiian vodka!

Very cool, Alex! You're getting some nice sounds from your Fender. I'm trying to "Keep my eyes on the Steel" but they keep drifting to the ladies dancing! Fun stuff.

Was there a step guitar in that clip?
Just kidding. Fun group and audience vibe and very nice steel playing.
