Anyone know what JB was playing during Alot To Drink About??

It was silver and very shiny--looked like there was a palm tree engraved on the back??

I couldn't tell too well from where I was sitting (strike that; standing — nobody sits at a Buffett show!), but it looked something like this:


Google "National Steel Guitar" to learn more.

Thanks, Steph!!!

Edit: GRRR...the Walgreens website is stupid. Keeps telling me that my password is incorrect.
So, I try to get a new one....the instructions say: "If you have forgotten your password, request a new one". There is nothing telling me how or where, and no link anywhere!!!

Nice Photos Steph
Great to meet you again, hope to see you next year

OK, working now.

Yep, it's a National Resonator. From last summer in Newport:

The nice thing about Alpine being so late this year is that it is not as long of a wait til next year!!

Good thought — good point!

To all - I hope everyone made it home safe. It was GREAT seeing all our old BN friends and meeting soo many new ones! What I recall of the weekend (and thats an understatement!) was a blessed riot (weather the exception but what the hell)!

Who stole my tour banner LOL!

Final count was near 600, 29 states represented at the party! Can we dare break the record next year wow!

For those of you I saw at the concert and kept me warm - thank you!!!!!

We will be posting pics on the Hemingways site in the next few days - www.hemingwaysportofcall.com

Hope to see some of you at the MOTM this year!

Thank you all, and thank you JIMMY for another great show!

The weather wasn't the greatest, but definately tolerable. I had a great time.
(Except for having to sit out a large portion of the tailgate because of a wicked stomach ache).

I absolutely enjoyed seeing everyone again.
JIM-thanks for the cake for Larry and me. You rock, my friend. Sorry your two lovely ladies weren't there. Maybe in 2010.
JOLENA & ERIC-thanks for putting together a great bus trip in from Janesville. I'll look forward to being with your crew next year. Much love to both of you.

It was nice to meet you if only for a brief time, we ended up in the GREEN lot far, far away!

And thanks to everyone else I met, already looking forward to 2010!!

Thank you---was very curious.

Now, does anyone know why Charleston went into the crowd toward the end of the show???

OK so after much thought (on just what to say, there was never any thought if I did or did not owe an Apology) I have decided that I owe the lot of you a written apology , A big one I am sorry .. I over served myself and got drunk.. very very drunkI cannot remember being in a group of BNers and being that stupid.. I will not lie and say that I never get that drunk, but I try and reserve that for My away from BN time.. I prefer not to show my stupid side to this crew.. Which I did..
If I got out of line with anyone or overstepped any bounds.. I was wrong.. I stand before you and offer you not one excuse.. I am guilty( and not too bright) I am sorry..
If any of you (or your friends) feel the need for more of an apology (private or public) please let me know..
Santa..

I have no idea what you are talking about... perhaps I was that bad also! (I actually was very tame on Saturday..)

As far as I am concerned Wayne, no problems here!

??? I don't remember you doing or saying anything offensive
But I accept your apology for whatever you did (Will you accept mine? )

I don't recall your "stupid side" making an appearance, Wayne... Sorry that you are feeling this way, though.

What you said (to both Jolena and I) means more than I could ever tell you. You know what I'm talking about....
