Awww Geee....I was hoping we'd have a Good rhythm section...Oh well, I guess we'll just have to be careful about the material we do and try and keep it simple for the boys in the band, especially Ric Boyer...I know Ric's thinking, how could it get anymore simple than what you play on a show. Seriously, this is VERY good news and makes me look that much more forward to the show. We'll see you there. |

It looks like Benton,Illinois is about 4 1/2 to 5 hours from the North side of Chicago. Is that about right? Ed |

Yes indeed Scotty and I are both looking forward to this great show and I believe that we're going to do our "duet" with the Pedal Steel and the Frypan on Saturday afternoon...
Hope to see you there!

Don,
How late do you expect the show to go Saturday night? I was thinking of maybe driving home if it's not too late.

Kim In the past the saturday night show breaks up anywhere from ten to 12 pm. Depends on how things are going. It really is a grat show, very nice facs. Not to big not to little just right and all the players are very accessable and seem to really enjoy the weekend. If anyone is thinking about coming but not sure, you won't be sorry. Fred Rushing |
