SC: Saluda Show

[Jim Hartley]

Hey Alan,

What's keepin' ya? You know you've got a place to stay and I might even make you breakfast Sunday morning. Come on down, and bring the chick singer with you.

See ya soon,
Jim

[Stephen Gambrell]

Yeah, Alan, Come on down! I HATE that moron's bass playing.

[Stephen Gambrell]

I spoke to the moron today. He told me that he intends to make up for his lack of talent with an increase in volume . WAYNE SMITH, where are you???

[Roger Crawford]

Less than a week. Rob Parker and I may have a trick up our sleeve. Let's just say the guy that recorded the song won't play it live! We may find out why!!!!

[Wayne F. Smith]

Hey guys I will probably be there Sat night. I usually hold off for a paying gig on Sat to help with expenses.

[Rob Parker]

Come on over Saturday nite Wayne..I'll give you some money ???? How much ????
One never knows...Ole Stevereno might donate something also ????
See you soon
RP...'come on in'...

[Stephen Gambrell]

I'll keep the moron in the cage, Wayne---MAN, I can't tolerate that dude .

ON A SERIOUS NOTE----
Most of y'all who've been to Saluda in August know how hot it gets, and how strained the A/C units get. We ask that, if you bring a camper, motor home, or other RV, PLEASE run your A/C's, etc., off your generator. This will keep the power on all day Sunday(we hope!!)We're close to overloading the building as it is, and we want everybody inside to be comfortable for the entire show!

This is gonna be a good'un! Everybody but Vern has got to buy me a hot dog. (Vern has to buy me TWO!)
Please come out, support the Shriners' Hospitals, and listen to some of the best country music, played by some of the best pickers, you'll ever hear.

[David Fields]

Why is he that bad?
Rig?
Timing?
Doesn't know the fretboard?
All of the above?
Tell me....I gots to know.

Dave

[Stephen Gambrell]

David, you'll find out Saturday night, if Wayne doesn't show. Try not to get too close to the moron, though---He don't take to people he don't know.

[David Fields]

He don't bite, does he?

Dave

[Stephen Gambrell]

Nah, he's not bitten anybody yet.

[Ron Elliott]

Hey Guys and Gals, we will have the new CD "In the Garden" by Don Helms & Ron Elliott. We have had many calls wanting if we would have it in Saluda,..YES, YES.. Thanks for asking,..thanks again! Ron & Leslie Elliott

[Alan Coldiron]

I would love to come down this weekend, sounds like its going to be a great time. Jim's Sunday morning breakfast (and maybe Hartley Burgers) and great pickers sure is tempting. Got to figure out how to not do this day gig thing. It really gets in the way. Looks like Wayne is going to be there so you're covered very well as far as bass goes. By the way - Hi Wayne!

Plus if Chuck Campbell is there I wouldn't what to mess him up again

[Stephen Gambrell]

bumping it up!!!

[David Fields]

Hey......where exactly is the motel at?
What is the name of it?

[Stephen Gambrell]

David, it's the Saluda Motel. Right in the heart of downtown Saluda.

[Tony Prior]

It's been a bit since I've been down to Saluda to see my little (big) buddy Steve, and the other great folks. As fate would have it we have a gig this Saturday night which gets us home a bit late but I am going to try to make the trip down from Charlotte Sunday AM anyway, maybe not to play but at least to get a Hot Dog !

Still remembering Buddy Walker, I barely knew him but he always made me feel like I was family...

[Roger Crawford]

Getting the charts together and trying to find enough money to buy Steve a hot dog...see ya Sunday morning!

[Brett Day]

Gotta get "Redgold Beauty" polished, cleaned, and ready. The show's very close-tomorrow y'all. See y'all tomorrow.

Brett

[Brett Day]

"Redgold Beauty's polished and ready. Gettin' closer!


Brett

[Roger Crawford]

Gettin' the mules hitched up now. See y'all shortly!
