A few weeks ago I was asked by Forum member Dan Galysh if I'd be interested in working for Lee Ann Womack. After learning the details I decided this was something I wanted to do. She plans on working about 40 days this year and most of these will be on weekends, so I don't have to give up my "other" job. I love to hear Lee Ann sing as she does real country and features the steel. The band is a real treat to work with as well. Great players!
This Friday and Saturday, 6/20 and 6/21 we will be in Lincoln City, Oregon. Next week will be Onamia, MN and Chandler AZ. Check out her website from time to time as they do updates and see if we'll be in your area. www.leeannwomack.com
I want to personally thank Dan Galysh and Rusty Danmyer for their recommendation. |

|

The 'local Oregon boys' (steelers) are rumored NOT to ALLOW outsiders to come in to play in their private territory.
Sorta like the Musicians Union used to do there in Nashville when JERRY BYRD was denied the opportunity to play a job on the OPRY.
Just kidding............the first paragraph that is.
We all WELCOME YOU to Oregon.....and congratulations on that NEW, GREAT job. |

| She is a good singer and she now has one of the 'steel guitar greats'! By the way, her song, "Never Again, Again" makes a great steel instrumental. |

Congratulations Randy! Sounds like a win/win situation; you got a gig with one of the best "girl singers" out there, and she got a fantastic steel player!
Hope to catch one of your gigs somewhere... |

| It's always great to have players like Dan and Rusty sing your praises, too! That it itself would be a very high honor. I'm glad to see that they recognize great talent when they see (and hear) it. Lee Ann is the real winner here. Randy...you'll still be able to make St. Louis, I hope!!! |

Hey Randy....I just saw this post, congratulations on what I think would be a great job. She's a winner and more so now that you are working with her. Have a great time and we'll watch her schedule to see if you're coming any where near us at some point.
...Roy
