Al was telling me about the little light weight amp he uses, Evans RE 200 and only has a 10" speaker,if that's it to his right,man what a sound coming from it. Great stuff as always Al. |

Last year Al did a tribute to Moon at the Dallas show, I thought it was great. Glad he's doing this. That's a good looking band in this clip, just not very loud. Thanks for posting it Joey. ------------------ |

Does anybody else have this problem. The video shuts down just before they start to play? |

Guys, The video does not shut down. It is a streaming video that has to load before it plays w/o interrupting. Watch the bar underneath the video, it shows you the loading speed. Click on the "Play" symbol to pause playing and let it load completely, the click on the "Play" symbol again to start the video. You also have a "Full Screen" symbol on the right, but that also works only once the video is loaded completely. Hope that helps! Kind Regards, Walter |

I let the video download completely and then hit the "replay" button. That way you get to see it without interruption. |

Works for me just fine! Al,,,, super job! That is one of the signature sounds of pedal steel guitar and you nailed it! Joey's flat-top is right in there with you. I know your DVD will be very successful. Will it have matching Tablature? ------------------ |

I was really diggin' the clip and the playing and then it dawned on me that that may be the ultimate marketing tool for instructional courses. I get something out of all of the teaching materials I've bought but it's nice to have something like a video clip that shows me exactly what I am going to get before I buy it... a test drive of sorts. And in this case, a direct hit. I'll buy one the second it's available. [This message was edited by Doug Garrick on 23 April 2006 at 09:20 AM.] |

Thanks for all the kind words, & a big Thanks to Joey Ace for instigating this project. I hope it will help to assist & inspire steel players everywhere. It's very humbling to realize that Ralph developed this style back in the late '50's & early '60's, first on a home-made pedal steel, & then of course on the Fender 1000. Best wishes, Al Brisco |

Herman. I'm not 100% sure what you're talking about, but I think I know, so I'll try to help. First of all, you can correct your own mistakes by clicking on edit above your post. There's no need to post a separate correction, and it's easier for the readers. Al's site is www.steelguitarcanada.com If that's the case, the story next to the pictures gives the names of all the band members. Al is playing the Steel, which he built. It was soon replaced with the Fender 400, for obvious reasons. Hope this helps. |
