The time is fast approaching for our annual Super Jam! It will be held on Sept. 7 & 8, 2018 at American Legion Post 88, 2864 Elm Hill Pike, Donelson, TN. We start at 1:00 pm and go till about 10:00 or 10:30.
Although the schedule is not yet firmed up, and a few players have yet to confirm, I can tell you that we will have a wonderful show! I have confirmed:
Doug Jernigan
Russ Hicks
Larry Sasser
Terry Bethel
Lynn Owsley
Billy Robinson
Perley Curtis
Eddie Lange
Bill Ferguson
Johnny Cox
Eddy Dunlap
Carco Clave
Jonathan Cullifer
Nick Reed
Chuck Campbell
Mike Sweeney
and a few others...of course this is subject to change.
We have the finest back up band in Nashville; Ric Boyer (bass), Earl Erb (lead guitar), Andy Peake (drums), Walt Cunningham (keys),Drew Covington (fiddle).
O
This is our big show of the year, and will have some vendors on site, including Mrs. John (Jean Hughey).
Admission is $25 each day, or both days for $40. Where else can you see all this talent in one place for such a small charge??
As soon as time slots are allotted, I will post the schedule. You can also check us out on Facebook (NTSGA), or our website; www.NTSGA.com
Thank you and I hope to see you in Donelson!

Great lineup and backup band. I missed last year, so I am really looking forward to this year.
Bummer! Just spent all my money on an Evans pre-amp and Stuart power amp. Too old to hitch hike and sleep on a park bench, so no steel show this year.

Schedule is posted in another thread. Hotel or motel accommodations are up to you. Several hotels were contacted with disappointing results. The venue is close to the airport and rates are pretty high. Bottom line is if you can stay a few miles away, the hotel rates are much less. We will try to do better next year!

I would like to thank the NTSGA for inviting me to play. It was a wonderful show and I was able to see many of my old friends.
Hope to do it again sometime. _________________ AUTHORIZED George L's, Goodrich, Telonics and Peavey Dealer: I have 2 steels and several amps.
