I've been to three of Jeff's shows & would recommend it to all who are able to make it to Leslieville to attend his 5th show this year!

I am pleased to let you folks know that Luc Deharnais from Calgary Alberta has been added to the lineup. He does a great job of Telstar, I think that it makes a great & unusual steel instrumental and look forward to hearing him do it this year. Best regards. ..jeff bradshaw

I went last year for the first time and had a blast! Jeff and his wife put on a first class show. They are gracious to a fault. I hope I can go again this year.

Jeff, I am thrilled that you asked, and can't wait for June! It will be my first time out west, believe it or not. All my Canadian travelling thus far has stopped in Ontario.

Hi Chris, It is just terrific that you agreed to perform a set for us, we are all looking forward to hearing your set. This is the fifth show in as many years and judging from the interest that has been displayed in the form of emails and phone calls, I thinking that I may have to move it to a larger venue this year! I will make a decision over the next week or so regarding the location. Best regards. ..jeff bradshaw

Well that is great news Jeff you will not be disappointed with Chris he is a great player and if you ask him he will even sing a few songs for you. Had the pleasure of spending the day with Chris when he came to Toronto last month and we had a ball. This guy can play not only steel but you better keep those tele's away from hm as well.

5th Canadian Steel Guitar Show Location!

Post by Jeff Bradshaw »

Okay folks, I have the location figured out...The event will take place about 30 minutes south of Leslieville & Rocky Mountain House i.e., The Kurt Browning Complex at Caroline, AB will be the venue for this years event. It is a larger venue, bigger stage and it even has a lounge style area (no booze..sorry folks) where folks can visit without disrupting the steel show. I am excited about using this new location I will post a map when I update my website as time allows. I also have another special guest coming that I am very pleased about...I will make an official announcement once I have the final details addressed...without giving any names I can let you know that I consider him to be one of the most historically significant steel players alive today and maybe the kindest gentleman that I have ever met. Best regards. ..jeff

Thanks, Charlie! I've got a lot to live up to now. But yes, I do love a pick on the old Tele and would not pass up a little jam. :)

Talk about suspense, Jeff! A few names are whizzing around in my brain. Can't wait to find out!

As a follow up to Scotty's comments of a week ago, I've attached a few photos; was he having a good time or what?! Note his supervision of Doug Jernigan & Jeff Bradshaw!!
