Looks like we will be having ourselves a great program on the 17th, with Joe wright, John Lemaster, Chet Gibson confirmed. Larry Mangum, singer, songwriter, bandleader of The Cowboy Orchestra, will be doing a set with some great country and swing tunes. I believe Miss Penny Lynn will also make an appearance, her first since last year. Who knows, the Yella Fella, Loren Propper, may even show up and do Rose Colored Glasses! Members are getting the word out to friends and supporters. Let's fill up the place and enjoy an afternoon of good music and fellowship. Lonnie

Bill, I just learned that the Hammontrees will be performing, also Chuck Haynie, and Jack Daughtery is coming, so that will take us to 6:pm. So I guess if we go til 7:pm, we have room for two more, unless you want to go til 8:pm. I'll be away for the week end and will return Sun night. Thanks, Lonnie

A reminder that Joe Wright will be doing a 45 minute seminar, geared for beginning/intermediate players beginning at 2PM Sun 17th at our 1st anniversary show. You can bet that there will be something ANY level of player will benefit from, and it's only $25.00. If you'd like to attend this seminar, call me @ 904 993 4422. You can pay at the door if you like. Thanks for your support. Lonnie Portwood

:D :D Lonnie, we have been telling Robert Bird for years, to just lay down and let nature take it's course. But he said they will find him still in office, sitting at his desk, someday. He reminds me of old Strom Thurman. :lol:
Anyway, hate it that we are missing this one. The W.Va. trip has a Nashville trip tied to it as well and was planned several months ago. Hope to see ya in St. Louis. Also, if you are playing around the area, please shoot us an e-mial or call us so we can come by.
