No, no, Bill - I was saying:
"But 'E' plays it this way...."
Seeing as I'm the only one around here without an accent, I felt an explanation was required.

The fact that Buddy responded personally to this thread shows that he still logs on and reads comments, which I'm verry happy to see.
Buddy is, to my mind, the greatest living exponent of the steel guitar, and will continue to be that for many years to come.

not to be a big butt-kisser or fan-atic, but any day buddy posts here is a good day!
he's just got more personality and is a little more off the wall than your average buddy.

Buddy Emmons wrote: ...I've had several people not believe Buddy is my real name. maybe I should have changed it to Horace...
I can imagine the stage introduction, "...and now, on steel we have that great virtuoso, Horace Emmons."
It doesn't quite roll off the tongue, does it?

Chuck Berry had a number called "Betty Jean". Maybe the Registrar had been listening to it while he was making his entries.

Scott, that's my kind of humor. I swear if I ever record it again, I'll call it Betty's Boogie and Horace Emmons will be the name I'll use as writer.
We're having fun now.

I LOVE this forum.
I can just see Mr. Emmons purposely misspelling E-M-O-N-D-S to the hotel clerk...haha

SHO-HO, could possibly refer to a dancer who works in a house of ill repute. Or it could refer to a highly polished garden tool. Anytime, HO is mentioned, the conversation gets SMUTTY, therefore I suggest Betty's deal with SHOT, be called SHO-BET. YOU CAN NEVER LOSE, with a SHO-BET. LOVE YOU, BUDDY EMMONS!!!!!

Great to see you on here, Buddie, Buddy, Betty Jean
