Me too !

Fred,I can do that!

Looking forward to it! I'll be bringing some friends this year.

Knowing you Jim, that could be a couple hundred people, better get my room booked pronto, hope you come to the Saturday night jam/fundraiser it is be coming legendary, worth the price of admission alone to see John Brabant's dancing skills.

Such a great well rounded lineup, if you are coming to Sunday’s show, make sure to attend the Saturday night Show at the Piedmont Club with Jeff DeMaio and Gunsmoke, Buck and Robby will be sitting in, nice way to hear some real Honky Tonk steel guitar with an East Coast legendary band, keeping the music alive. Its a 5 minute drive from the Doubletree so make it a part of your weekend, you won't regret it.

And, on Sunday, as a great gesture from Jim Cohen, his great steel guitar will be accompanied by along the Ronstadt Revue. If you haven't checked out them, please do so, they are fabulous www.RONSTADTREVUE.COM, Thanks Jim!

This years players represent many great styles of steel guitar, we look forward to you attending and hanging out with many Forum Friends!

Me too, Stu

I'd love to see this!

Any chance Stu could swing by and pick ME up?

Roger, your presence has been requested. (Besides, you owe me a pint...)

If only, Jim. I'll be 'Patsying', however, and my presence elsewhere is required.

Mind you, the director hasn't heard me play yet so that might change....

Stu, can I join the carpool, pretty please? I'm a measly 3000 miles out of your way!

I think at this point Stu is going to need a bus....or a train

Gimme a ticket for an aeroplane...

I'll steal a bus and pic people up from N.Y. to Az.Texas,Wa,eventually landing in Connecticut...no Problemo!

Bump!

I just reserved my room at the Doubletree Hotel for the Sunday Show and the Saturday night Fundraiser at the Piedmont Club.

Do it as soon as you can, I spaced last year and had to stay in Stamford at a much pricier hotel. it wasn't far but nothing beats being right there at the Norwalk Doubletree.

The Saturday night show with Gunsmoke, Buck, Robby and Jeff is not to be missed, trust me, and its a 5 minute drive from the Hotel.

What makes this special for me is that the first PSGA show I attended somewhere around 20 years ago featured Robby Turner and other great players, Junior Knight was there and its going to be great to see Robby again after all these years, and don't forget the great Buck Reid, the Ronstadt Review with steel guitar ambassador Jim Cohen, along with some great guys from Brooklynn (Brian and Raphael), Mike Neer, that guy Jack from the Swamps of Jersey, and one of the best guys out of Connecticut John Widgren.

Don't miss this show and stop by and say hello, I'll be the guy with the big grin on his face and John Brabant will be the guy dancing!

I'm looking forward to this year's show.....last year I brought my sister, brother-in-law and some of their musician friends to the Saturday night show featuring Gunsmoke with Jeff DeMio, Joe Wright, Lucky Oceans, and another steel player whose name I can't remember.....they were blown away and are still talking about it to this day.....
