WHAT! NO GARTH BROOKS? IS HE RETIRED ALREADY? Anyway It is worth it just to see 90 year old Bill Carlilse. You can bet George Riddle will be there backing him up.I don't know if Bill is the oldest to grace the GOO stage ,I believe it would be himself or Herman Crook..Good triva Question anyone know ? Thanks Jan for the Update.

It seemed like a great mix of treditional carols and pop classics.
Jimmy Dicken's the holidays are great times for a family reunion but maby not a barbicue.
Bill Carlisle keep the audience attention as he worked his way thru Rudolph the Red Nosed Raindeer.
Jean Shepard was streight forward with her version of Oh Come All ye Faithful.
The Osborne brothers kept up the bill Monroe tredition of a performence of Christmas times a Comin.
The Whites may sing in the same key as Emmy Lou Harris, but the steel parts jazz it up.
Next on stage was Bryan White with great versions of Let it Snow and the Christmas song. Randle you looked great and I noticed
you were playing C6. Glad to see Bryan introduce his band also.
The finale was an all cast singing of Silent Night

I loved the sound of the band behind Bryan White. Big wooden electric guitars, upright bass, grand piano, C6th Zum, and drums mixed just right (low!). Everyone was playing so tasty.
Bryan's no Mel Torme, but I can see why the girls flip for him. He's a good looking kid with a good, identifiable voice.
Jimmy Dickens is always one of my favorites.
It seemed like everyone had a different steel player. I saw at least four. Can anyone name them all?

I'm with you Mike. I think Bryan White is one of the BEST young talents in the business, with a great steeler BTW. I think he gets a bad rap here on the forum. He is certainly one of the most "musical" of all the current crop of young singers. His pitch and phrasing are impeccable and are reminicsent of his idols, Steve Wariner and Glen Campbell. My 2 cents.<p ALIGN=CENTER><FONT SIZE=1 COLOR="#8e236b">[This message was edited by frank rogers on 12-22-99]</FONT></P>

So, just to summarize;
You're mad at Garth because you don't think he's country, and he didn't do the show.

do the show...
Yup. You guys should be runnin' the place. With the music being guided along by your clear and constructive criticism, I'm sure the place would be full every night.

p.s. I wouldn't care if the guy sang the bloody Gregorian Chant, as long as Randle Currie was gonna steel for him. But that's just me.
