Just wanted to congratulate Tom Bradshaw for his induction into the Hall Of Fame. This man has done so much for the steel guitar and certainly deserves such an honor. There are not too many people who are as trusting as Tom Bradshaw. I ordered products from his many times and he would send it without receiving the money first. Congratulations Tom on your induction into the Hall Of Fame. |

Tom, when I first heard rumours of your induction, I started to worry about the speech. Would Scotty allot enough time? Do they keep a "hook" at the side of the stage?  In all seriousness, though, congratulations on this recognition for a lifetime of devotion to the art and culture of the steel guitar. The award was well deserved, and I'm proud to call you my friend. And thanks for keeping it short. ------------------ |

My Congratulations to Tom also. He is a major factor that hooked me on steel guitar, by making all those records and other steel guitar products available. At one time, I think I had all the albums he had available in his catalog. Thirty years ago, I couldn't wait to get a little money ahead (which was tough to do back then) and send it off to Tom for a new batch of records, and I still have all of them, as well as most of Toms catalogs he sent out. It was a great thing he did by donating his remaining stock of products to this great Steel Guitar Forum too. ------------------ |

Tom,last week I was doing my first session recording,you have a big part on it,unfortunetely was impossible for me to fly St louis to meet you in person,I hope the next year..and see your name there in the hall of fame CONGRATULATIONS |

Congratulations Tom, Its me, the big banana. I'm unhappy with myself for missing the induction ceramony. I blew my only chance to voice my many objections.

Well deserved Tom, after all those years of playing for the Steelers.... wha???? oh, never mind Seriously, I can't think of anypone else on the West Coast who has promoted PSG, and PSG players to the degree you have. In fact I still have the single pole MSA pickup you mailed me about 20 years ago, on my '70 MSA. Congrats, dave. ------------------ |
