*Brand new, rates are $60. I'm told.
Once again players confirmed are; Buck Reid, Tommy White, Ron Elliott,Doug Jernigan, Lynn Owsley, Eddie Dunlap, Shannon Todd and the ole legend himself, Jim Vest. I talked with Mike Johnson and his being there depends on taping schedules in November. He should know if yea or nay soon.
There will be lots of GREAT singers also this year including Amber Martin, David Chamberlain, Dottie Jack, Tom Campbell, my lovely wife Mary Lou Reed and many many more. Lots of very good local players also and as usual a great Nashville band. Thanks in advance for being there with your support....Bobby (615) 419 9642

Thanks for the updates guys. I should be posting the line-ups in about 10 days. I'm waiting on 2 more confirmations.
Anyone interested in renting a vendor's space they are $125 for 3 days wich includes 2 three day passes. If you do the math the booth is almost free so I hope many of you take advantage of that.
Also our usual variety show will continue on Thursday the 7th so anyone wishing to sing is welcome to show up early and sign in.
I've had questions about prices. AT THE DOOR: Thursday $14, Friday $22, Saturday $25. Advance(which you can reserve simply by calling me at 615 419 9642) $12 Thursday, $20 Friday and $22 Saturday or $50 for all 3 days. I intend to beef up the Thursday show with a hall of famer and a world famous singer-song-writer to close the evening.
Once again thanks to all for your interest and support and special thanks to bOb and the forum for allowing this message....Bobby |

I'm still working on the schedule (line-up) as I've had a cancelation which I have replaced and I've had some players who needed a different time slot so I'll soon have it worked out and posted.
Thanks again to all for your interest and support....Bobby |

I stopped at the Lake Cove Resort on my way back from Texas Saturday. I checked out the rooms and they are wonderful and the staff is real friendly. That's where I will stay even tho it is a few miles North of town.

I regret that due to many problems Tommy White will not be there this year.I believe Tommy regrets this as much or more than we do. I can't reveal all the circumstances as I gave my word however he had NO CHOICE in his decision to cancel.He also promised to be there next year no matter what.
I have made contact with 3 very well known players who could nicely fill the slot and one of them will do so.
I asked Big Jim Vest to tell from the stage how he came up with so many signature licks on so many records and he has agreed to show us his secrets. Don't miss this event.
Motel #s and my number is listed early in this post so contact me with any questions you might have....Bobby |

The plan is to begin around 11:30 AM on Thursday the 7th and 10:00 AM on both Friday and Saturday the 8th & 9th. I will post more line-up info soon. I'm still adjusting to some time switching and cancelation replacements. But I assure you we have some great entertainment in store for all. Each day's show will end around around 11:00 PM unless a jam gets started and interest is still strong.
See you all in November....Bobby |

It won't be long now. Michael, I wish we had talked earlier and I would have had you on this show and made you a big part of it. You are still very welcome to be there and maybe there'll be a spot or two if you'd like to play.
I've been busy trying to make final arrangements so just let me say again to all who support this show and those who have helped to make it possible thank you, thank you thank you. Carl, Lyle, Lindell, Jeanita, John, Aleshia, Phyllis, Mary, you all know who you are. Thanks again....Bobby |
