I don't know
if all
y'all (all y'all is the plural of
y'all) are country music fans,
but if you are, we've got a show for you. We have some Nashville/Grand Ole Opry
performers coming to Huntsville to perform at the
Coffee Tree Books & Brew - Friday, August 24th - 7:00 to 9:00 PM.
Earl Watts and I (Two Old Men
& Some Songs) will be the opening act. We'll probably play for about 20-30
minutes. Earl will probably do his award-winning song, "More Than A Name on the
Wall" and his funny parody song, "Whisky River". I will be doing my BIG Hit,
"Diarrhea Blues".
****By the way, we plan on doing the WORLD PREMIERE of the just
completed Diarrhea Blues Video at the Coffee Tree in about two weeks. Then we
will put it on Youtube. This is a G-rated song/video that is suitable for adults
and children; it just pokes a little good, clean fun at a problem that affects
us all at one time or another.****
Kayton
Roberts, who played in
Hank Snow's band for 30 years, and is being inducted into the Steel Guitar
Players Hall of Fame next month.
Louie Roberts, had a BAD back problem, and may not make the trip, but Kayton
says if his medicine works well, he may still make the trip. Louie is a great
singer who has played and sung on the Grand Ole Opry, Porter Wagoner Show, Marty
Robbins Show, and traveled with Eddy Arnold. We'll just wait and see!
Rob
McNurlin, another
excellent singer, who had his own TV show in West Virginia, and has been playing
with Marty Stewart, will be here to perform.
Roger
Carroll, who played
bass in Hank Snow's band for 20 years, has been added to the show. With Kayton's
steel guitar, and Roger's bass, we will be hearing some real country music, the
way they played it on the Grand Ole Opry.
I don't know where else you can
get this kind of entertainment with a FREE admission. However, we do hope the
attendees will throw some tip money in the bucket.
Regards,
Jerry Mungle
