Right -- Ms Hammitt was on the show, and did an excrllent job, as usual. She is an integral part of Bill Anderson's Po' Folks band, and has been for several years.
I did no recognize the gentleman playing behind Mrs McBride: or the fellow behind Clint Black -- he did some gorgeous work on the "back neck" of his D-10 Emmons.<FONT SIZE=1 COLOR="#8e236b"><p align=CENTER>[This message was edited by Charlie Fullerton on 12 October 2003 at 04:19 AM.]</p></FONT><FONT SIZE=1 COLOR="#8e236b"><p align=CENTER>[This message was edited by Charlie Fullerton on 12 October 2003 at 04:23 AM.]</p></FONT>

Wayne Dahl played behind Martina and Jeff Peterson played for Clint. Donna, Wayne and Jeff all sounded excellent and played great last night.

Just curious, now that the GOO is on GAC, is it the same format as when it was on CMT? Better, worse, same, sound, quantity of music, etc.?

They showed Harold. Different host and not so much chatting. I like it better. Sound was really good!

One thing you might do is call your cable server and request they add GAC.
