Chuck Thompson as part of the back up band and then showing off on Steel is also worth the money
Russ Wever is always worth seeing

Laughing it's true - I will be wearing my thongs for the show. Well... they're really boxers but they fit me like thongs. Laughing Rose: better tell Johnny that Jim Harmeyer said He is bringing a roll of quarters for any clunkers Johnny and I hit. He said He got a special from the bank @ 3 for $1!
