Jim did the lion's share; I did it after him. Not sure who is now.

He played a show here at the spirit Of Suwannee Music Park, they had no steel for this show, also they had no amps or sound system on stage, head phones and I guess trans mitters on their insturments,very good sound and a great guitar player, I think he told me he was the band leader, it was a great show and the crowd really loved it.
Harold Meeks came over to Nan and I and gsve us $10.00 bucks and said go have your picture taken with him a lot of people fell in line after us.
