Scandinavian Steel Guitar Association

Uwe Haegg · Post by **Uwe Haegg** » 4 Apr 2003 5:20 pm

Even though my reply in another thread got a totally underwhelming support I want to reiterate.
How about forming a Scandinavian Steel Guitar Association since there are a lot of fine steelers in both Sweden and Norway.
How about it Ulf L. and Dag W.?
Or anyone else who feels the need to promote the steel guitar in scandinavia.
Please feel free to email me and let us see if we can get this pig to fly.

A very nice and good idea! I´m not a good player, but fair enough to be a supporting member, and I´ll cheer the good ones from a safe place beside.
By now we are many enough to form a viable Scandinavian SGA.
Here in Sweden we have good pickers like Janne Lindgren, Martin Johannesson, Berra Karlsson and Kent Larnebrant, for example, who are all well qualified for leading positions, and there are other as qualified pickers in the other scandinavian countries.

5.april 2003,
Good Idea, Uwe.
In the past there have been seminars/conventions/concerts in Båstad, Sweden with Jimmie Crawford, Janne Lindgren, Nils Tuxen, Kent Larsson, and in Furuvik with Lloyd Green.
In Copenhagen, Denmark with Maurice Andersson.
In Kristiansand, Langesund, and Hattfjelldal, Norway with Jeff Newman, Jimmie Crawford, Scotty, Herby Wallace, Lloyd Green, Paul Franklin, JD Maness, Tom Brumley, Janne Lindgren and more.
A central place for Norway Sweden and Denmark would be the Oslo area.
Mange hilsner
Henning
