The Steel Guitar Forum

Brand new to this and would like to see someone rock it live. I don't see any Chicago area posts but i figure theres got to be players around.

robert,
yes there are some. ceck the members page
there are some playing out. i used to play out around Illinois and Wisconsin but retired
from playing out from 34 years ... but check members page....check with T.C Furlong he might know....


p.w

Here's one sure bet:

You can see Brian Wilkie with the Hoyle Brothers every Friday night at 5:30 pm to 7:30 pm; One of the longest running gigs in the area. At the Empty Bottle on Western Ave about 1100 North.

I’m playing a lot lately, like about twice a week somewhere with lots of different bands. I don’t know how, but it sure is fun. I’m with “Bart Alonzo” this Friday at “The Four Points Whiskey Lounge” in Medina. Also playing in crown point IN with a good bar band and Lisle with another band. Also playing steel with some jazz buddies at the Serbian Village in the city on 4/30 for “Hootenanny Night” whatever that is - first time for me. And could be great or a train wreck. Fun either way. +1 for Brian with the Hoyles at Empty Bottle.

Thanks everybody for the great info
