Ok i think we have about 10/12 folks telling me they are coming . We are looking forward to this ! This will be an eye opening and learning event ! I might add this will be a fun time for everyone . It will be relaxed and layed back ,no hurry or dumb questions ! Every question will be a good one and respected ! See how easy this is ?  Be sure to bring a C.D. or whatever you want to play and talk about . We will find out how many ways you can approach a song , what fills are good and tasty , when to play and when to lay out etc . Things we all should know and learn the longer we play . Make sure you write down questions that you may want to ask ahead of time so you won't forget ,,ok ?  Believe me we will have a great time talking and laughing and just plain fun . Hope to see you then . Oh by the way if we have a little snow we will still have this . The roads will be ok to travel , they keep the roads fairly clear so '' DON'T ''let this keep you away . See you then . G.P. |

|
|
| Open to all? A fee to help pay for the building? Donations to help? My wife says she has to be in Columbus on that day anywho. And since she is paying for the trip... May be able to make it. |

|
| Yes it's open to everyone . I got the building real cheap this time and it won't be much to pay for it . A small donation , that's all . This isn't a jam just a learning and sharing kind of thing . Hope to see you then . G.P. |

|
|
| Hi Dick . There is so much to know and share and this is the idea behind this . I have talked to some players about playing behind the chord and in front of a chord and they somehow don't understand what i'm talking about . Hopefully we will get to talk about this also . G.P. |

Posted 10 Jan 2013 2:21 pm Great Idea...
|
|
I actually like this concept much better then a jam... Come with an open mind and heart, willing to listen, then all can gain from anyones input. This is big Gary, I'm glad your on to it. As many steel players as there are in Ohio, the knowledge base is very wide and very deep. We all can be winners in this situation. Thank you for doing this...
I'll bring my smallest amp and head phones... |

| Just wanted to say I had a great time today. I really like that laid back format, and it's always nice to see everyone I know and meet new players. Sorry I had to cut out early, happens sometimes... I'll be looking forward to your next Sharing event. Thank you for putting it on. |

I made it back home safely about 8 PM. Just wanted to say I really enjoyed meeting everyone. I feel that my progress on learning pedal steel is moving in the right direction. Looking forward to future meetings.

| Thanks guys we did have a great time . I will be looking forward to the next one . After doing this one i can see we need to think about how we do the next '' Sharing '' . We need to concentrate on one thing at a time i'm thinking . Your suggestions are valuable to us . Best regards . G.P. |

Maybe at the next one we can concentrate on two or three songs that we decide on before the meeting and then go through them a little at a time. Since I'm working on beginning tabs maybe one song could be a beginner, then a more difficult one to follow for the more accomplished players. Just a thought.
