Ronnie Miller with Charley Pride

Post by Ingo Mamczak »

Last Friday night my wife and I were in Killarney to see Charley Pride in concert .
It was the first one of his Irish tour , which is completely sold out .
Playing pedal steel was Ronnie Miller , and I have to say a big thank you to Ronnie
for making it possible for us to be there . I had only " spoken " to Ronnie via e-mail ,
and it was my first time actually meeting him on Friday night , but he made us feel like we were old buddies , right from the start . It was in the Gleneagle hotel , and just over half an hour before the show was due to begin . He brought me up onto the stage , in front of an already half full house , and let me sit down and have a look at his GFI . Then my wife and I were introduced to Mr Pride himself . I have to say that Mr Pride is a real gentleman . He sat and spoke with us as if he'd known us for years . That is a memory I will
always treasure , plus , I just hope the photographs come out Image
Ronnie sounded great . And he makes it look so easy too . Everything he played sounded perfect , and the icing on the cake for me was the solo Ronnie took in " Danny Boy " .
All in all , one of the best concerts I was ever at . And finally I'd like wish an early happy birthday to Mr Pride , for March the 18th .

Thank you ,
Ingo.

I'm glad you got to meet Ronnie. We have been friends well over 20 years, and always have a great time together.

A fine player and a fine person.
