Well the Campbell Brothers w/Katie Jackson were all I imagined and more - solid rhythm section and of course some amazing playing by Chuck on the pedal steel (Sierra 12 string), Darick on the Sierra 8 string non-pedal, and Phillip is no slouch on the electric guitar either 
There is such a lyrical voice-like quality to the single string steel stuff that I think really is the hallmark of this style - very tasteful use of effects esp. the eBow Chuck used on a fine rendition of Summertime.
Lots of spirit, heart and soul on stage with almost 2,000 in the audience getting into it!
As good as the recordings are, I believe you absolutely must see these folks live for fulfillment
A few of us had a good visit w/Chuck afterwards and he showed us some sweet stuff up close - the man has big time chops.
The bonus is that the gig was recorded for broadcast on the CBC's Saturday Night Blues; this is a national network radio show produced out of Edmonton - I'll post when I find out the air date and you can hear it over the web.
