Mike, I think Neil's other daughter Stacia made it as she is in CA and is a designer. She has made alot of clothing for some prominent folk along the way!
We'll drive down for he show on Oct 2nd |

Guys,
Stacia surely could have made it. As Kevin knows, Stacia designed 3 of the 4 dresses Dolly P. wore at the 75th Ann. of the Grande Ole Opry TV show while hosting with Vince Gill.
This time we gave her a break.......we found this one on E-bay, it is spectacular. Mikey, if we had more time we would have had Stacia make a pant suit like she wore on the DVD we have of her. The one you play steel on!!! This is a real fun show, anyone in the area that can make it will not be sorry.
Thanks, Neil _________________ Sho-Bud Steel Guitars, 3 Super Pro's, 1 Super Pro II (Rose) & 1 Finger Tip

Drove down to Albert Lea last night for the show & must say Neil & Barb can be real proud Their daughter Stephanie did a GREAT job with the Tammy part and of course Neil on that big black SuperPro and Barb on keys. (He had his other two SuperPro's lying in wait) It was well done Thanks for a nice evening |

Looks like Classic Country is still in demand in So. Minnesota. Opening nite had a 80% sold crowd with competition of the Civic Music's 1st. show of the season. All 7 shows following are 100% sold out. We're happy!!!! Great story, Great music and Great reviews. Wonderfully talented cast for the musicians to work with. _________________ Sho-Bud Steel Guitars, 3 Super Pro's, 1 Super Pro II (Rose) & 1 Finger Tip

Hey Neil,
CONGRATS to you and the rest of the crew that helped make the production such a success! Wow! Sellout crowds indicate that a lot of people still love traditional country. You should be proud! Sorry Barb and I couldn't make it over to see the show...maybe next time.
