An April bump (new thread) for the upcoming Dobro Workshop in New York City.

Jim Heffernan will be instructing all levels in this day long workshop. He's one of the best.....players and instructors.

This workshop takes place on Sunday, May 1st at one of my stores in NY. There will also be some various resonators on dislay and at least one lap steel, the Harmos.

Here's the link to the original thread that contains Jim's contact and registration info.

Dan, the workshop begins at 10 am. You can park on the street or nearby streets IF you can find a parking space. That may be next to impossible on a Sunday. There are parking lots nearby, within a block.

My store address is 28West 38th St. That's between 5th & 6th Ave. The name on the store is Moda Veils.

I am sooooo looking forward to this.

Howard, if you remember correctly, I steered you to some Hawaiian corned beef (Pipi-Coola) at last year's Joliet convention. I think it was Friday night at about 2 AM. You gave it your stamp of approval.

You won't be the first to fly in food to Joliet. One year Bobby Ingano showed up with 5 lbs. of fresh Ahi-Poke (raw tuna with spices, olive oil and seaweed... drool - really!).

BTW - Your workshop sounds great, wish I could be there.

Just make sure you save some room for a steak at Al's Steak House.

Spiced tuna in olive oil (sounds great) and Al's steak? The 2005 HSGC promises to be a real blowout, gastronomically speaking...

and also gausstronomically speaking (a little enharmonic humor there).....

I am feverishly trying to get my shop "back-up" . . .
to put together the latest revision of the DG-3 "Dobro" Palm Pedal Assembly.
I have found that the "Beta-Release" leaves something to be desired. . .
(I have been set back by the process of moving for a number of months!)
If not, I will show the "Beta" with apologies.
Looking forward to the event.

It looks bleak!
The "X" wants me to have my son this week-end!
BUT, I WILL BE THERE WITH SOMETHING TO SHOW!
It is just that I was hoping to show you guys the "BEST-SETUP" !
I do not know if I can get the time "in-the-shop" to get the "improved set-up" ready to show.
Like I said before . . .
I may have to show a "Beta Assembly" . . . With my apologies.
But, at least, I will be able show you what the assembly it can do . . .

Dan, we're all looking forward to your palm pedals, even if the new improved version is not quite ready.

I'll have my peg bender & foot pedal on my 7 string there.
