Earl,
I really appreciate your reply Now that I've discovered you, you are one one of my very favorite steelers. I hope you continue playing for along time so others can enjoy your immense talent as much as I do. By the way, are the two girl singers backing Kenny still working? They're a kick. I think one is named Lisa. Best wishes and God Bless.

Gary, thank you for the very kind coments. Lisa still sings around the Dallas area , crystal the other girl passed away about 15 years ago from diabetes,miss her very much also.the Wylie opry has been since 1984. I have been there 28 of those years. We play a lot of classic country , if you are ever in the dfw area stop by. Wylie is just a little northeast of Dallas .thanks again , earl briggs......... |
