Anyone know of a very patient steel teacher in Houston? Image (Preferably in the North part of town)
Thanks,

Jake,
I'm not much of a teacher, but I'm a pretty good "shower". Email me if you want to.
Also, one who really is a super good teacher is Billy Phelps. However, Billy lives on the west side in Katy and I too live on the west side near Fry Road and FM 529.
Why don't you come to our meeting Sunday at 3pm and you can talk to both of us? It's posted over in Events and Announcements by Jody Sanders.

I believe Russ Rickman's moved there. He's a great teacher (and player!)
Do a search for his name here and you should find his email.

I would love to come to the meeting. Unfortunately, I will not be available Sunday due to a prior commitment. Let me know when the next one is, please.
Thanks,
Jake

As Andy Z. mentions, Billy Phelps is a great teacher and now located in Houston Texas.

Here is contact info for Billy and several of the teachers mentioned above and others also in the Houston (and North Houston) area:
