Hi, Doug . This is a great thing to do . This is one of our duties in life to help others that are in need . I'm planning on coming along with other members of the Ohio Steel Guitar Association . I'm looking to hear some of the great E-9 th. steel that you play at light speed . None of that is redubbed is it . ( just kidding ) . My Nashville 400 has never been the same since you used it at the show in Columbus last year . I'm still trying to get those notes out of it that you left in it . Oh well . See you at the show . God bless you . Gary . |

Gary: Sorry I am so long in responding to your post. I just got back from Gerry Hogan's Steel Guitar Festival in England. We had a great show there. As far as I know the benefit will be the only event planned for that weekend. I will look forward to seeing you there and all the other Ohio Steel Guitarist and friends that can come for a worthy cause. Thanks for the question. Doug |

Great show-saw lots of old friends from the past. One fellow came and asked if I remembered selling him a Buick from my car lot 35 years ago. It was real heart warming to see how everyone came together to help Gary. I can make you a bet Gary will be back at it soon. And probably on a Steel Guitar. Ed Naylor Steel Guitar Works. |

The show was fantastic. Great band, great singers, sold out house! We taped the show and Joe Adams will be having it edited and produced for sale. You will be able to order a DVD from him in a few months. It was good to see the Adams brothers together again even though Gary couldn't be a part of the band. He was very touched by the outpouring of love and concern for him. It was obvious that Joe and Don Adams had done a lot of work putting the show together. |

I would like to thank everyone for lending their support for the benefit for Gary Adams. We had a packed house at the Colony Theatre. Gary was very appreciative for those of you that could come and also for the mail in donations. Please keep Gary in your prayers for a full recovery. Doug |
