Thanks to Bill Ferguson for the plugs. Bill will be one of our Master of Ceremonies. He will get to meet Romeo Sullivan, another of our Mississippi famous radio announcers, DJ, musician, superb singer and entertainer. Romeo will assist Bill Ferguson in the MC duties etc.
Jerry Jaye is another great talent that will be with us on Saturday. He has a job he has to work on Friday night. Looking forward to the program Jerry will give us Saturday evening with a very special guest vocalist-DARLENE BATTLES. Darlene stays quite busy with her gospel tours and in October, she and Jerry will be performing on a cruise ship. We are very fortunate to have this million record artist and Rockabillie Hall of Fame Member on our stage. For those of you who have interest in the Rockabillie music and its beginnings and foundation, you can go to my face book site and just scroll down to the picture of the old fashioned juke box and hear the original "Josephine" that put Jerry in that HOF. There is another old fashioned juke box treat with another of Jerry's earlier hits that assisted in the formulation of the Rockabillie music. Thanks to all.
Come see us on Nov 2nd and 3rd, VFW Dedeaux Rd, Gulfport, Ms.

| Just confirmed that BILLY CARR will be with us-both days. Billy is one of our Deep South Premier Mississippi Steel Guitarists. Ellis Olsen will appear with Billy for some of the best good country and gospel music heard anywhere. Ellis is a main-stay perfomer in just about all the major big time country fair shows here in our fair state. We all will enjoy Billy Carr and Ellis Olsen very much. Thanks guys. |

Hal, you are a big part of our show and your presence is certainely appreciated. I know the singers enjoy your support too. Would like for you to open our Friday show as no one can play our "National Anthem" as well as you. This day and age, I want to show appreciation for our country and there is not better way.
Romeo Sullivan will also be here to cement the MC duties.
The schedule line up is really going to be exciting for all of us.
I do have the final mastered DVDs from our last show and will have them available at a nominal cost.
Thanks to all for this great support. See you in Nov.

Just confirmed that one of our favorites will be here=GORDON DODSON, from the land of Julian Tharpe-Ozark, Al. Thanks Gordon. For those that do not know about Gordon, he plays a single 14 string EXCEL with Julian's tuning-and he does it the proper justice too. Getting better all the time.

Bill, It is a little early for us to confirm your show just yet, being in construction, I just never know how the work load will be at that time. However, we would love to come if we can work it out. If you would like to use Jean DeVore on your set in St. Louis, I can arrange that. Thanks, Larry
P.S. if not, it is totally understandable, as I know the time is limited.
