After being gone for a couple years, it&#8217;s taking some time to settle back in. So much has happened since I&#8217;ve been away including the loss of one of my best friends in the steel guitar business.<\/p>\n<p>As I&#8217;m sure most of you know, Mr. Maurice Anderson is no longer with us. He was the father of my C6th playing. I was probably the father of his E9th playing. He also was an incredible non-pedal 12 string player. My friend since I was a little kid, I admired him tremendously. I&#8217;m sure anybody that knew him felt the same way.<\/p>\n<p>Maurice and I had our problems after I left the MSA circle, but our problems were resolved and our childhood friendship continued until he left us.<\/p>\n<p>There are so many good steel players and friends that I have lost over the years and of course, being a studio musician in Nashville, it hurts to lose anyone regardless of what instrument they played in the studio circle.<\/p>\n<p>Duke Dumas, a guitar player in the studios here in Nashville and also known by most of you as a musician that Scotty uses on bass guitar for the big show on Labor Day. He made a visit to Steel Guitar Nashville the other day and said he had just lost a loved one and he had determined that he was going to visit and catch with everyone he hadn&#8217;t been keeping up with while they are still here to be visited.<\/p>\n<p>I feel the same way about all you guys. I&#8217;m looking forward to reconnecting. I remember Johnny Paycheck saying at the end of one of our shows, &#8220;Thanks for coming to see me. You&#8217;re coming around is wonderful. That&#8217;s how I know I&#8217;m still around because you people are coming to see me.&#8221; I wish he was still here.<\/p>\n<p>Don&#8217;t forget the big steel guitar workshop that we have planned for all you guys and gals.\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.steelguitar.net\/workshop.html\" target=\"_blank\">Here&#8217;s where to find out the details.<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.steelguitar.net\/\" target=\"_blank\">www.steelguitar.net<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"mailto:info@steelguitar.net\" target=\"_blank\">info@steelguitar.net<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/bobbeseymour\" target=\"_blank\">www.youtube.com\/bobbeseymour<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a>Listen To Steel Guitar Music Streaming 24 Hours A Day!<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Steel Guitar Nashville<br \/>\n123 Mid Town Court<br \/>\nHendersonville, TN. 37075<br \/>\n(615) 822-5555<br \/>\nOpen 9AM &#8211; 4PM Monday &#8211; Friday<br \/>\nOpen 9AM &#8211; 2Pm Second and Third Saturday of each Month<br \/>\nClosed Sunday<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bobbe Seymour here with today&#8217;s newsletter.
