One more thing, Steve and his dad are great folks and will make everyone feel right at home there.
Also there will be plenty of things close by for the wives to do in case they get bored.

Mike and Bryan will have a booth with their great cds for sale and Boo and Ray are building some fine pak-a-seats and will have them on display. Looks like it's going to be a good show already!

Looking good Steve.
Bob,
Don't count your chickens about the Hicks's yet, I think Steve is going to talk to Russ next Tuesday at the Super Jam here in Nashville. He'll let us know then.
Also Boo Miller will have his new c.d. there too.

Well, It's official!
Russ and Laney Hicks will be at the Tri-Cities show. Also it looks like Herby Wallace is going to be there too. I know of another maybe but, I'm not saying anything untill it's confirmed.
This is going to be a GREAT show and I hope it's a yearly event for a long time to come.

Steve,
This is going to work out just right. I'll need a new Hokies cap by then and I can pick one up there.
I can't wait.
