With great regrets I will not be able to go to Bobby's Shindig this year. I believe this will be the first one I have missed since 2005. My wife Pat will be getting a new hip on the first of September. I think I will be staying close to home for a while. I will miss seeing all my old friends.

I agree with the others, the sound couldn't have been any better.
Bobby spent a lot of time and expense putting this show together
and it was a fantastic show. One of the best I've seen in years. 
Got to see many friends and sure met a lot of new ones too.
Want to give thanks to Bobby, the house band and all the musicians
and singers that made this show an absolutely perfect one.
Carl & Jean

| Thanks again fellows for your replies and comments. Next year I am thinking of setting the show up a week or so to avoid football season kickoff and the state fair competition. Any thoughts or comments on that schedule change are certainly welcome... |
