I'll be there, for what it's worth, and as long as I don't have to drive to the jam, I'll come up Fri., and maybe you'll let me pick, or at least sing at the jam. Always a good show, always a good time, and definitely GREAT FRIENDS!!!!! Say "Hey" to John's Brother Bruce for me!

Bruce,
Thanks for the call. I'm glad to be a part of the Quad Cities show again this year. Looking forward to seeing everyone, (even you Dino!) again this spring. I'm happy to be adding this show to my "2008 world tour" or um.... "three state rampage"....Bill

Hi All

He is coming all the way from Penn. to be with us.

Hi Guys! I must say, I'm truly honored to be invited to come to the Quad Cities to play this fine show! As you know, my wife has family in the area, and I have a feeling a large bunch of them are planning to show up too: so it was a savvy marketing move on your part to invite me! LOL!

Am looking forward very much to having a great time with y'all!

Best,
Jimbeaux

Dear friend Jim. It looks like we'll finally get to play together again. I have great memories of our first meeting on a truckbed. See you in Apri. Dale

Well, I guess I'd better learn that song before I get there! Don't tell Ray Jenkins, though, he's been on my case to play it for years already.

Lookin' forward muchly to jamming with you and your band again, Dale!

It would be nice to know what city this is in. Or even what state.

Please include the location in the subject line when posting events.

Bruce, I hope you don't mind my offering of the information as I am just a participant in this show.

Bob, Thank you.

Davenport , Iowa(Show Location)

I thought I was in the state of confusion

See ya there Bill!

I have updated the subject line.

Kirk,
Up until now you were!
Looking forward to the great new location......Bill

Hey Bruce: Can't wait for the show. This sure is a great show every year and a new location can only make it better. Look forward to the Jam on Friday night and listening to you play your set on Saturday. Thanks for the invite and see ya in April.

Can't wait to hear Jim live!!!!!



Bob

Not quite, Kevin. East Moline is considered a 'burb.
Just like East Davenport, and Silvis.

See Jim live? That's the way he always sounded to me!!

Aaaaaaaa Haaaaa! Yes I will. Yes I will.
James,
Looking forward to seeing you play again. Will you be at the show?

The Roadie

I'll help bump this up for you all.

I'm working, in Florida, with lead guitar player Cal Akers who is from East Moline.
