Looking forward to some great music in Dallas at the steel show. More importantly, hanging with some great friends I have made at this show.

We of the TSGA welcome and look forward to you and all the others coming in March. This year is going to be real special.

Hi Charley, really looking forward to March. Got a couple of new recruits coming over .... In total there will be 5 from Ireland. Wishing you and Dixie a very happy and prosperous 2018.

I am excited about this show as well. I am learning the steel and look forward to meeting like minded folks.

We will be there and have our booth same spot as last year.

I am going to the Dallas show.

Glad to hear you will be in Dallas Charlie.

It will be exciting to introduce 2 of my long time friends to the stage of the TSGA.

Now let's see, what can I say about them? hehe

Gonna be a good one.. Looking forward to seeing everyone.

Gary Sill, will you have a Peavey Session 115 at the show I can try out? I'm particularly curious about it since, if I understand correctly, it can run in true stereo with an extension cab, or sum to mono without. Is that right? I have more and more effects that benefit from true stereo, so something like the new Peavey might make great sense for me. Thanks!

Not trying to butt in but, Gary has several posts about the Session 115 on the forum. I think Charlie might appreciate us sticking to his topic here.

Lloyd Green and JayDee Maness together at the TSGA. Yippee

JayDee & Lloyd's CDs and consessions will be next to the ticket booth adjacent to mine, Come by to get yourself a copy of their new CD. We will also have JayDee's solo CD & tracks, and a couple of Loyd's previous CDs.

You can purchase the Sweetheart tribute art print signed to you personally by Lloyd & JayDee. A chance of a lifetime!

Can't wait for this. I'm returning after seven years away! I went 2007-2010 and haven't been back since. Looking forward to it in a big way.

With Pete Burak and Chris LeDrew there it'll be just like old times for me (though I'm not sure the two of you were ever at the show at the same time)! Can't wait.

Since I reserved my hotel room in Irving about 8 months ago, I guess I'll join the Canadian contingent, above. I first met both Chris & Bob at Jeff Bradshaw's Canadian Steel Guitar Shows in Caroline, Alberta some years ago.

Mike Headrick is graciously sharing his booth with us and we will have the Lloyd and Jay Dee tribute to the Byrds "Sweetheart of the Rodeo" CD's and T Shirts for sale there, along with a pre order for the limited edition Record Store Day vinyl LP that is being released on April 21st. These LPs will also be personally signed by the artists. Thanks, Mike!

John, will there be any way to get a signed copy of the new CD if we won't be at the show, like a website that we can order from?

Expect it to be fun.
This will be my first steel show since Scotty's convention in 1980 and a much smaller show Tom Bradshaw put on with Jerry Byrd and the late 80's or maybe 1990?
I'm certainly primed and ready for some great music.

Craig:

I can pick one up and mail it down to you. I am planning to grab a couple shirts and a pre-order on the vinyl. Let me know what you will want and I will get what you need for you.

Ok, John, Give me a call before you leave and I'll tell you what I want and send you a check. Thanks!

Pete Burak it will be great to catch up after all these years mate :-}

Chris LeDrew it will be good to see you again too mate :-}

Ted and Charlie -- as always it will be great to see you two guys -- and wee Dixie of course :-}

Craig. Yeah, figure out what you want, shirt sizes if you want them, etc. We can talk by phone prior to the show. Wish you were going!

Yes this will be great, Paddy! I will dig out the photos I have from July 1982 at Jeff Newmans place!
