Prayers for Albert and Debbie!!!! I too am on the frontlines and have seen what this virus is capable of!!!!!! As much as it hurts to miss everybody in Texas this year let’s all get healthy and have the biggest show ever in 2022!!! I have enjoyed playing the Thursday night talent show the last few years thanks to Charles Tilley!!!!!
And thanks to my adopted Godfather lol...Bill Ferguson, had a cancellation on the main show due to the virus and Albert told Bill to fix it. Bill called me and woke me up early on Saturday morning and told me I was on the show and I jumped up out of bed and got ready!!! Made this Bama boys weekend!!!
Thanks to those who are able to provide updates, continuing to pray for ALL who are effected by this virus!!! |
Jeremy,
Bill made an excellent choice. I remember hearing you in Atlanta several years ago and your playing and tone was very impressive.

News about Albert from the TSGA:
Dear Friends,
I wanted to give you an update on Albert. Several of you have asked how he was doing. Thank you so much for your concern and prayers! He is still in the hospital. Over the last week he has received Rendiscivir and 2 rounds of an Antibodies Plasma cocktail, plus other medications that have proven beneficial when fighting Covid-19. The ongoing concern is that his oxygen numbers continue to be low, even on oxygen. When he moves around, his numbers drop even more. Fortunately, he has NOT had to be on a ventilator. They are working on setting up oxygen at their home, so hopefully he will be well enough to return home soon.
I will keep you updated with Albert's progress. At this point, Debbie asks that you just keep them in your prayers!
Have a good day. Stay safe and well!
Vangie Fich, TSGA Staff

There is now a separate thread on updates... I'm updating here for completeness. Check the thread below for future updates from the TSGA and Debbie.
Dear Friends,
Here is an update from Debbie...
Dear Friends,
Albert is home and continues working towards restoring his health after being diagnosed with pneumonia and COVID 19. He was not doing very well until they decided to give him the antibody plasma and Remdisivir. I do believe the doctors and nurses were on top of what was going on. God bless them for all that they do!! We thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your thoughts and prayers. His oxygen levels are better and, thankfully, he's not had to use much oxygen since returning home. The hospital situation was rough not being able to see him and hear what was really going on. He's struggling to regain his strength...this virus takes it out of you!! Please be very careful!!
We consider all of you to be our family and hate that our annual reunion in March had to be moved to 2022...we are praying we will all be on the other side of this mess. Praying for everyone's health and looking forward to seeing you all very soon!! Thanks for your continued prayers!
God bless y'all!!
Debbie Talley

Thank you, David for the reminder!! I had cancelled earlier already but had no evidence of doing so. I spoke to a very nice gentleman on the phone a few minutes ago; he re-confimed that I had cancelled my reservation AND sent me an email confirming this. Hope to see you and my many steel guitar friends next year. Thanks again!
I also want to send my best wishes to Debbie and Albert as Albert continues to recover from his bout with pneumonia and COVID-19!! Sincerely, Jim Harrison |

| I am sorry just catching up. Praying for Albert and Debbie and hoping for an update. Since this year was canceled and I opted out last year, I really miss this event and hope we are able to gather in 2022 along with Albert and Debbie. |
