Here's to a speedy recovery! You are a national treasure, Lloyd, and an inspiration to so many! Best wishes!

I'd heard of this guy. This video came up while I was searching for something else, but I liked it!
Thought I'd pass it on.

Anybody know anything about him?

So sorry JR. I don't know you, but I certainly feel your pain. We lost our oldest boy Richard at age 17. 1997.

I went through the same thing trying to decipher these lyrics!

My Hilton has developed a noisy connection where the ac adapter plugs in. Loud hum! Any fixes?

So sorry for you Andy! I don't know you personally, but I feel I know you through your love of steel guitar.

Merry Christmas to Paul and all you other great steelers out there! Thanks to bOb for creating this place where we can all learn and share! Merry New Year, too!

Thanks Todd and Deke!
You're appreciated!

Thanks Joachim! Great info. I too, always enjoy "different" kinds of players!

I always liked this one.

Well, we all knew this was coming. So long Skipper! I never got a chance to meet you in person, but I learned a lot from you. You were so kind to me and encouraging when I was just starting out. I app ...

I was only commenting on the 1st song linked. I haven't heard the rest of the LP, but of course I like weird stuff!

Thanks for the link Doug. So cool! Almost Theremin-like in some spots. Could've been a soundtrack to "One Step Beyond" or something!

I've been looking at this one as a possible solution for Steel and guitar.
There is a 2 X 12 speaker box available for it that I believe would allow stereo.

I'm truly surprised I don't see bigger crowds for a lot of these shows. People don't know what they're missing!

I can't believe how lucky I am to live in an place where I can see so many great musicians play any night of the week, for the cost of a beer and a taco!

Saw this the other night. Beautiful stuff!
One question: Was there a drummer?

I'm not sure what the creators update is. Mine was automatic.

Thanks for the quick reply Jack!
I updated my video driver recently and ran scans.
Also I keep getting a pop-up wanting me to setup One-Drive

Anybody else having weird stuff happen after this week's updates?
Probably not too important, but my desktop icons keep re-arranging themselves on reboot or explorer use! Who knows what else has been ...

Another lefty here!
I've played guitar right-handed for over 50 years, steel for about 6.
I used to golf right handed too!
Most lefties have to adapt.

I, too, followed his art over the years with hopes of having one of his creations someday. Another shock! You really get to feel like you know some of these guys on the forum. Very sad.

And you do that song so well Mr. Bovine!
