Look for Rick Crow's post or another post on the discounted rates for our show attendees.
Since we have the show for only Friday and Saturday, we decided to open a jam slot on Friday so that we could include more players. It is open for those of you who would like to play with some singers. Let's make that slot into a fun time.
Also, bring some cash!! Chasity Jones will have her jewelry booth and there will be some used music equipment for sale. If you have something you would like to sell, please feel free to bring it with you.

We have made arrangements with Hotel Glenpool for special rates for our show. However, as with everything else the last couple of years, they have again increased their rates.
This years rates are $75 plus tax for a single King, and $80 plus tax for a Double Queen.
Contact information is 918-518-6000. As in the past, it's best to ask for Rikki.
He already has one booking that he had given these rates too. I think he was pretty sure we were coming back.
Alot of rooms available, so let's fillem up.

| I talked to Rikki at Hotel Glenpool and he says that our block of rooms is just about full. Don't let that stop you as any overflow is at the same rate. |

| My wife and I attended today’s show and thoroughly enjoyed it. We had attended regularly for several years before moving to Ohio in 2008 and really missed attending. We are back in NW Arkansas now. Hopefully, we will get back to being regular attendees. |

| What a show it was. Excellent group of players backed by a killer band. Mike McGee showed us how the C6 can sound when you have enough knee levers to handle it. Awesome job from Mike. Paul King put his Emmons to the test and his set was both powerful and moving with a tone to die for. Rick Crow did some snazzy upbeat tunes that made the crippled want to get up and dance. Steve Matlock played some serious hot licks that filled the room. Kevin and Chastity Jones are a knocked out entertaining couple that are always a treat. Kevin plays red hot lead guitar as a backup member, then seems to move easily to pedal steel and perform the same amazing job. Plus he sings just as well as his guitar skills. Chastity sang Linda Rhonstat's Blue Bayou so close to the original that I got teary eyed and lost in the song. Beverly Harris and her group did some tasty 70s rock that blended with the crowd. The kitchen staff was handled by volunteers Barbara Rosetta and Janet Wise. These ladies are so sweet and friendly. I can't imagine a show without them. Every steel player had something special to add and the show was wonderful. Thanks Beverly, Rick and all the staff for making my weekend a happy and enjoyable time. I talked with some friends and made a few new ones, plus renewed my membership. |

I agree with what Larry Dering said. Great show with lots of great players. As I said in a previous post, it was worth attending the show just to hear Paul King. What a great player and friend. Also, it wasn' mentioned that Paul was presented Player of the year in Texas at last show.
Great to see you again, and again, you played great.

| What an honor to be part of a great weekend. I sure did not feel my best due to a bad case of reflux but that weekend did me a world of good. We heard some great playing and singing and the fellowship was top notch. Thanks to all of you for all the kind words and comments. Thanks to President Beverly Harris and all the OSGA staff for putting together a great show. Thanks to Larry and Larry for their kind words. To all of you "Thanks You" for being friends, that means more than you could ever know. As always it was great to see my good friends Tony Tipton and Larry King. We talk every week via Ma Bell. |

| Posting my sincere thanks for the invitation to be a part of this fine show! Mary and I are so blessed to partake in the music and fellowship with so many dear friends. Our thanks to OSGA and their hard work and super efforts, with Beverly doing a great job leading this club. I am honored to be a minor cog in such a great group of staff musicians. And, of course, some incredible steel players and steel guitar music! Already looking forward to next year. |

| I want to thank Paul King for bailing me out at the last minute when my volume pedal tanked on me. A call went out to help me locate a volume pedal Paul was THE one who rescued me, thanks again Paul, I appreciate you more than words can express. |
