Don-I wish you luck in your steel show in Ashtabula. I spent some time there before WWII, around 1940. I played at the Swallows Restaurant. Is it still there? Used to be the classiest club in town. I have heard some good comments about your new BSG Guitars....al.:):)

Rudy, I am so glad that you can make our show, I am anxious to see your new beauty, I have always liked the sound of the Mullins guitar, I just finished my new one, it is white with the powder coated end plates in red. I just finished a large powder coating oven. Have been doing the pedal racks in that hammer on look.
Take care and keep in touch.

Al, the Swallows resturant and bar is no longer there, it was tore down quite a few years ago and a Flying J went in there. Wish you could make our show too.

I regret that I won't be able to make the show this year. I had confirmed this last night with Don, and then found out from my wife today that my son is getting married that weekend and I must be in the wedding. I am already looking forward to wearing my Tux in July. Thanks for the ivitation Don and hopefully I can make it next year. I'm sure it will be a great show with the lineup.

Don, this sounds like another really great show with a great line up of players, and I'm really looking forward to it!

Herby, sorry to hear you can't make this one, but there's still time yet. Maybe your son will change his mind? :-) My best wishes to you and the family, and congratulations to your son.
