Many of us will not achieve that fantasy goal of playing on a big stage with a major singer/band...Many nights and days spending time "practicing/playing in the back room or porch wherever/whenever you can....Who do you dream of being on stage with......My first choice is Barbara Mandrel....next George Jones... (whichever one of the two calls me first HEHEHE)

Hey Rick, I knew Jim Hartley before he made it big! I still do some spots with him occasionally.

Daryle Singletary. The most underrated vocalist in the history of country music, IMHO.

Roger Edgington · Post by **Roger Edgington** » 24 Jul 2008 7:32 am

I see lots of good choices already posted that I also would enjoy. I have done a lot of one nighters including Bob Wills,Lefty Frizzel and Connie Smith. I played for Darrell McCall for a year and a half in the mid 80s. I've been with Billy Mata for the last 14 years. Not as big of a name but a very good band. My wish list might be: They don't call. They don't write.
