Hey y'all. After 20 years of lusting over having one, I finally came into possession of a pedal steel guitar. I don't know where to begin. I want to take off the old strings, polish him real good, lay the best strings on it that I can (and learn how to do it, stretch them correctly if they're supposed to be stretched, etc.), and dive into it the best way possible. I have a dobro and a bottleneck slide as well as a lap steel. I never got the lap steel out too much though and lack the knowledge about tuning and method. Anyone that can share advice or instruction (I can pay), I'd welcome all the help I can get. Message me at michaelsinger01@gmail.com. Denver, CO -- based.

Will There be any Poco 50th Anniversary T-shirts being Made? That say 50th Anniversary. Many of the other Artists made them for their 50th, Beach Boys Neil Diamond, The Beatles , The Monkees etc . Would like one to commemorate The Year!!! Oh and Rock Band Chicago Last Year Turns 50, And had 50th Merch For it, Thanks Bryan
 

Happy 38th anniversary to my wife Sharon.

When entering website, there is an old picture of former makeup of Poco. Can that time be increased that it shows, so it can be enjoyed a little bit - now it fades too fast.......Thanks, Mike E.

What is the current lineup for Poco? I saw you guys at a Taste of Colorado in the late 80's/early 90's in Denver. Just love your music. So much so, that I got the Poco horse tattooed on my right leg. Poco has been so erratic about touring, it's tough to see you. Wish I did not have health issues last year or would have caught you with Firefall in the Billings, MT area. Yep - saw Firefall and Marshall Tucker Band together in 1978 or so. Still have the ticket stub to remember it by. $12!! Can you believe that? Anyhow - what is your current lineup? Thinking of catching you in Bremerton, WA.

David -Thank you for your help, and I will try this tomorrow. Perhaps you are right about dominating the Message Board, so I won't pursue this on here any more. The advantage of the previous Forum was that all correspondence could be listed under the appropriate subject matter, so you only had to read matters of interest.

Niagara Falls Canada or New York would be a great venue for the band to play. Lots of Canadian fans would show up!

Grahame - we're in danger of making too much personal use of the board which I'm not sure is the intention - nevertheless, it's been my experience that Poconuts are a friendly, helpful bunch so I'm sure they won't mind! If you click on the link which Randall gave on page 1of the Forum thread "Poco on Amazon Prime" it will take you straight to the sales catalogue for the DVDs with Sunset Rodeo at the top; scroll down and you'll find Marty Balin. In each case, click on the small "click to buy" box at bottom left and you'll be taken to a PayPal payment page where you can insert your details. Delivery can take up to two weeks but, as I said before, at $15.99 you shouldn't incur any VAT at an exchange rate in the region of $1.40 to £1. The DVD should play but it may depend, potentially, on the age of your player - it will play on the optical drive of a PC or laptop. If you wish to try Greg Rike Productions again you might be best advised to use their website contact page where there is a facility to send a message; alternatively, you could telephone, after 3pm UK time (and depending on your provider's terms) - 001 407 862 6882 (dial exactly as given) - and ask for Paige who deals with sales. I'm sure she'd be happy to help.

David - the Amazon Prime version of Sunset Rodeo is only the 58 minute version, and the link to Living Legends Music (GRPStudios.com) appears to be incorrect, and my previous messages to Greg were returned to me. I can see now why I gave up! If you can give me a functioning link I will try again, as I would like to purchase the Marty Balin DVD as well.

David -thanks for the message. I did try to contact Living Legends re Sunset Rodeo, but all my messages were returned to me, so I gave up in the end. I will now try again - thanks for your help.
