Why such a lack of videos?

There is a distinct lack of steel guitar videos on this forum. There are loads of brilliant British steel players yet so few instrumental videos. An earlier thread was all about tone, well let's see some videos then we can watch and listen to various guitars and the tones they produce by different players maybe on similar guitars probably using different equipment, settings etc., as well as letting some of us see and hear a sample of playing from the players we communicate with but never get to see.

A lot of you guys have been around for years, then there are the up and coming younger players, it would be interesting to compare the difference in playing styles techniques etc., if any. How about it, I'm sure John Davis won't mind if you borrow a few of his "Bum Notes." That ok John?, I'm sure we could all learn something.
Cheers Dave.
