I watched the show yesterday, as it's on Monday's at 5:00. It's the same show that they'll be running this Sat. It was one of the best shows that I've seen so far. Hank Thompson was on. And David Church, a young man that does a Hank Williams Sr. tribute show, does a great job! Sounds just like Hank. They had a fella on that sang "Devil Woman", and he picked his own lead, and he did it very well.And Joe Savage was prominent in most of the songs, and was excellent as usual!

Myron there is no better way to carry on ones memory then to re-live the great things they did.I did see the show and for a moment I'm sure that gentleman made someone relive the past at this mans uncanny recreation of Hank.It was a pretty darn good effort and the band kept the simplicity of the music and backed the man up to a tee.Also it was great to see one of the very last performances (I believe he retires this year)of the other great Hank, Hank Thompson.Hank Thompson more than anyone is responsible for my ever getting into Country music.

The gentleman playing his own lead and singing Devil Woman, is Scott Fraser. He is a local talent in the Twin Cities area, and when I had Bill Stafford on my shows, Scott was his lead player. Heard some great licks that day.

I watch the show and there is good talent on it but whomever does the mixing (if they are even mixing) needs to return to 'mixing school'
It is generally a good show through. |

The sound does leave a lot to be disired at times. But being a show produced by the local folk, I doubt if they have what you would call a top shelf sound technician. I just think it's great that the people would commit to that much hard work to keep traditional country available to the public.
