i'm takin' time out to raise my hat to the Ladies who don't abound in the Macho World of Steelin'
Barbara Mandrell and Sarah Jory are those that come to mind
i don't often see Ladies posting here on this Forum either
So...Could the Ladies stand up and be accounted for.
Yes ! Wives and Steady Dates can get in on this one too !

The trouble with most Svenska flickas is that they don't know their left hand from their right!

There's a female Russian steeler named Sasha Ostrovsky working with a band called Bering Strait. Supposedly appeared on the Opry a couple years ago. They do a nice job on "Does Moscow Ever Cross Your Mind" and "He's in the Gulag Now."  |

| Hey, Crowbear... steel players are typically sidemen (i.e. musicians, not singers). In all my years of watching bands perform, I was hard pressed to find female side 'people'. I've seen a lot of women who can SING, but I've seen very few who can PLAY. However, things are slowly changing. I've seen a few female side musicians playing on the Grand Ole Opry - fiddlers, banjo pickers, even a couple of steel players. I think lead guitar is more 'macho' than steel. Hopefully that will change too. |

Here's CASEY, an up and coming "girl" player...of course she has a famous steel-player for a teacher. (Does the Fender guitars give a hint?)

| Back in the 50's there was an episode of the original Mickey mouse Club that featured a 6 year old girl named Jeannie Felis (that's probably not spelled right) singin and playing "When Irish Eyes Are Smiling" om a 3 neck non pedal instrument. I have a tape of the performance if anybody wants to see it. |
