Looks like John Michael Montgomery will be playing about 20 minutes from me. Any steel currently on his tour?

Don, a buddy of mine plays bass for him. I texted him so I'll let you know what I find out.

In the mid '90s, Monte Good played steel for John Michael Montgomery. He played a left handed Derby.

Thanks Tony. I can't remember the last time I went to see a major name (or former major name) at a regular concert but this one is at a campground at reasonable price so I thought MAYBE.....

Oh well, worth a try - thanks for your effort!

Brett, I'm having enough challenge learning steel playing right handed. If I was watching a leftie and trying to translate, I'm not sure what my brain would do! Laughing

It would probably do this.

I couldn't handle playing left handed steel since I've got cerebral palsy in my left hand-I'm right handed so my left hand holds the bar. I couldn't imagine hearing John Michael Montgomery's songs like "Cover You In Kisses" without steel-Paul Franklin played on the record.
