| Where in Missouri? We've got the big steel jam coming up in Swansea, IL, on the 21st. Swansea might as well be Belleville, you know, home of Bob Goalby, Jay Haas, Jimmy Connors, Buddy Ebsen and Clint Walker. You should come... we're letting some other Missourians in. |

| Ransom, welcome to the group and glad that you are bona fide. Remember that George Clooney wasn't bona fide in Oh, Brother and he almost lost his wife to one who was. But I digress. You're down near Leasburg which isn't far from Sullivan. Jerry Thurmond has a jam session every Saturday morning in his West Gate Music Store. Always a good time there and he and the gang will welcome you. My user name here is Ray Campbell but most musicians know me as Ray Carson. (I'd change it on here but don't know how. I received your note about coming to the party on March 14 and welcome you with open arms. Bill Dobkins tells me he'll be there if I'll sing at least one with him. Heck, ham that I am, I'll probably do more than that. Anyway, glad you're here, Ransom. |
