Hi everyone, I would just like say I had a Great Time in St. Louis this year.
I would like to thank the steel players that I performed with while I was there.
My pal Gary Sill, you sounded great my friend. Thanks so much for asking me to sing with you. You did a fantastic job. You just keep sounding better and better.
The Hall of Fame Show was great. Thanks to Scotty for including me on the Show and to Jimmy Queen and rest of the Staff Band for making the NEW GUY to this part of the show feel at home. It was a real treat to have the Legendary John Hughey kick off "Borrowed Angel" for me, you did a wonderful job John!!!!, and Bobby Caldwell you did great on guitar and harmony vocals, and to Stoney Stonecipher Thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!
What can I say!!!! Mike Sigler you are Tops in my book my friend, It was a treat as always getting to sing with you. We not only had a great time on the Big Stage, but it was a real treat in the GFI Room on Saturday Night. Thanks to the GFI Folks for always making me feel at home. I hope that we can do it again???
Del Mullen, Heck I just love this whole family. Del and Dixie have always treated me like their Son, and Mike and Shawn like a Big Brother. I always have a great time performing with Del, I just can't wait till Mesa and Texas so we can do it again.
Thanks Charlie and Margit Stepp and the Derby Folks, It was real treat to sing with with my friends Lynn Owsley and Billy Robinson in The Derby Room. If you were not there to hear Billy Robinson do "Make the World Go Away" you missed out on a real treat. Great Job My friend.
There was also a New Steel Player that I hope you folks got a chance to hear that has only been playing a year from Kentucky, Rodney Crisp. We will be hearing alot out of this young man for years to come. GREAT JOB RODNEY!!!!!!!
Eddie Fulawka, Lonnie and Glenn Portwood and all the Folks in the Fulawka Room. You all are #1, and it is always a treat to get to sing on your shows. Roger Edgington and the McCoy Brother's, you all have just got it!!!!!!!! It is always a treat to have you guys backing me up. Thanks Eddie for always asking me back!!!!!!!!!
I would also like to send out a BIG THANKS to Miss Lana Roselli and Mike Scott and all the folks at www.steelradio.com for always playing my music, and for keeping the steel guitar going out to millions all over the world.
I can't wait till next year!!!!!!!! Till then God Bless you all and thanks, RED

Good to see & hear you again Red. See you in Dallas. Don't forget C@C in Carlisle next July. You're invited to the feast on Sat. at 5:00pm.
If you bring your guitar my brother Tom & I will bring something to pick on.

Red sounded great. Unfortunately I didn't get to hear every one of his performances, but I heard him breathe new life into "Heartaches By The Number" and do a killer rendition of "Borrowed Angel"
This guy is my favorite singer!

If you haven't experience the excitement that Red brings to the stage and the enthusiasm to any number he sings, you should see and hear him.
I was fortunate to experience backing up Red on one number at the ISGC. Well worth the visit, as the one fellow said, he brought life into the song---
Thanks Red for being a great friend.
Oh, the next time you see Red, he's also now taking up lap steel, he's got it in his blood and he sings like that. A great guy to back up any steel player.
