Thank you for putting this together as usual; I will be there! If I promise not to mess up Goodhearted Woman like I did last year can we do "I Love You Because...?"

Anyone playing Saturday night before the jam? I plan on coming over Saturday and spending the night before the Sunday jam. I would like to hear some steel guitar in a country band, however, not new country.

I will be playing for Robert Henry and the Repeaters Saturday, June 1st at Washougal Times from 8-11 pm. Looking forward to my first jam on Sunday, too. Thanks for putting this together, Larry. I’ll have a Mullen Discovery for sale or trade with cash on my end for a late 60s emmons, early Pro II, or LDG if anybody is looking to downsize.

Thanks Trent, I'll try and make it to your gig.

One week to go, round them up and move them out, we have some fun to be had by all.

I’ll be making the trek with Bob Knetzger. Looking forward to seeing you all.

Congrats, Larry! It was a great jam, with great playing and great company.

Stay tuned here, I will be posting video links in the coming days. The files are large and will take some time to get them up on my YouTube channel.

Thanks for putting these events together (Patti too), it's such a gift to the community!

Thanks Larry and Patti for hosting again. Also thanks to the back up band-very professional. My wife and friends enjoyed coming. It was great!

As usual, great comaraderie was felt both with all participants and enthused audience members.
A great display of many styles of play, steel brands, amps and gear:
3 Sho~Bud, 1 Sierra, 4 Emmons, 4 Mullen, 1 Carter, 1 Show-Pro, 1 Williams, 1 Zum, 1 Rickenbacker.
Thanks, as always, to Larry & Patti, the backup band and the Ponderosa Lounge.

Thank you, Duane. It's always a pleasure to do these! Playing for the first time was an adventure as well!

ALL VIDEOS ARE NOW POSTED AND WILL SHOW UP ON THE PLAYLIST!

Hope to see everyone next time.

Wow, I hate the tinny treble weak sound of my steel? That is not the way it is supposed to sound! Sorry to the guys in front of me having to listen to that horrible sound. My Emmons push pull generally does have a high bright sound, but this is way over the top. I run my Evans SE 200 amp at high levels of bass, low treble and about middle to slightly minimum mid range. Just one of those days.
