I am planning to arrive sometime Friday afternoon or evening. Driving down from Vermont, taking I-89 to I-91 through MA and CT. I am happy to give anyone a ride who would like one. I am also happy to drive to pick up people in the NY metro/Southern CT area early Sunday morning. Just give me a ring at my home number: 802-229-9870 (landline) or at my cell: 802-498-5661. I have a station wagon and can carry equipment and luggage for anyone who needs it transported. All free of charge. Just want to make sure anyone who would like to attend can attend.

Very psyched.!... BTW, I have no cell service at my home so if you cannot reach me at my cell, leave a VM and then call me at my landline. I can receive iMessage texts to my iPhone.

Buck Reid is DRIVING all the way up from Nashville, an 18 hr drive. Lucky Oceans is flying in all the way from Australia. And Chuck Lettes is flying cross country I expect. Let's make their trips worthwhile and show our gratitude by packing the joint. Fill your car with friends and family if you are making the trip. Often the conversation on the trip is one of the most memorable parts of traveling to these shows.

Please don't forget that Buck Reid will be teaching his steel guitar class on Saturday November 11. Support Buck and sign up for his class, get the inside skinny from one of the best.
Please drive safely. See you there!

Bob M- I won't be able to make it this year, but I sure have enjoyed those great Convention pictures I picked up last year. Especially the one of Speedy and Jeff.

Counting down the hours until the wonderful, music filled weekend in Norwalk, Ct at the PSGA Steel Guitar Show.
It's going to be a great show with some super pickers.

It was very nice to see you all yesterday- very special day.

Just FYI, I received a private message in forum from someone in Ireland inquiring this Goodrich VP, so PSGA may receive an email from Colm Murray.

Had a great day at the show on Sunday! Our backup band was the greatest. That deserve so much credit. Really enjoyed listening and seeing all the performers and getting in touch with old friends. The PSGA rocked with a wonderful lineup of players.

What a day! Thanks for the association for letting me be part of it. Great catching up with old friends and meeting new ones like Mike Neer and Karen Sarkisian. The back up band was truly world-class.All the players brought something interesting and different to the table, and of course Buck Ried was his usual great self. Lucky Ocean gave us amazing display of creativity, technique and showmanship. Great show!
