The Steel Guitar Forum

Here are my photos from the TSGA Jamboree last weekend. They are posted in the order the artists appeared on stage. Since some artists appeared on stage more than once, there are repeated photos of them. Unfortunately, I was not able to see/hear all the artists. Some photos are not all in sharp focus. Please advise if I have made any errors - thank you.

Great pictures and Thanks for posting them.

Thanks, Jim!

Great phots Jim, as usual, and thanks for the captions!!

Looks like Mullen was well represented. Wish I could have been there.

Very many thanks Jim, great shots!
Must have been a huge show & hope to get over there one day.

Thanks Jim...great job! Carl

Jim, Thanks for posting all these great pictures. Gave us all a good feel for the event and I'm sure great memories for you.

You really are the man Jim, what beautiful memories of a steel guitar family we can be so proud of. THANK YOU, for your labour of love in producing these treasures. 2018 was an historical event both for steel guitar and country music and will be remembered forever!!! Neil Degraw

Thank you!

Thanks Jim. Now I've been able to see what I missed while in the hospital.

These are really great,Thanks so much.

Wow Jim, as always you did a super job. It was great to see you again.

Now, from what I see, I must have scared you away with my playing, hehe.

So I will insert one last picture for you.

Great pictures, as always, Jim. What a fine show and line-up.
Chuck

Jim

Great pictures as always....thanks for preserving these moments

Really nice pics--thanks for posting!

(Did anyone else catch those cool green wood-faced knee levers on Lloyd's steel? Sweet!)

Thank you to ALL the commenters to my post of my photos! Bob Knetzger, I didn't notice Lloyd Green's green-coloured knee levers but, he personally showed them to me when I saw him in St. Louis in 2002. I had told him I followed his advice to buy a Sho~Bud LDG guitar. He was pointing out these & other subtle differences between his model #1 and my off the shelf model!

Bill Ferguson, I explained why I didn't catch your set. Here is a slightly lightened version of your photo you posted, above. Thank Linda for covering for me!!



Sincerely, Jim Harrison

Jim, thanks for all the work in taking and posting all the photos. I couldn't make it this year, so they were extra special to me.

I can't help asking "Who's going to fill their shoes?" With only a few exceptions , the average age of the players is "deceased." and I include myself in that group. Where are all these guitars going to wind up? What can we do? Take a young person under our wing and pass our gear on to them? [/quote]

Great show, great pictures!!!

Great pics as always Jim, thanks for that and great to see you again :-}

As always Jim, Great pictures. A special Thank You from me since my wife got very ill at the last minute and we had to cancel this year. J.R. Rose

Jim, thanks for posting the pic of me, I may have one of you I can trade you, I'm still recovering from the big Texas adventure and a bad cold. I'm hardly ever in photos, so this one's a rare treat!!

Also thanks for being so gracious with me and my shooting, making sure you weren't in my way...you weren't. You're quite the gentleman!

All best,
John McClung
