Bird, good for you, Brother....I bet the view from atop the mountain is just fine.... Debbie, you have yourself a natural ball....LOVE you Sister...send my love to Dickey-boy.... Uploaded the first round of Jam For Duane pix..starting with the tuesday evening LIVE@5 Concert Series, presented at the fabulous Georgia Music Hall of Fame and Museum, on the very intimate stage "Tune Town" ,in the museum's main exhibit hall... as Ya'll may or may not know, the show featured the Capricorn Rhythym Section, including- THE legendary performer and producer Paul Hornsby :clapping: not only a great artist, but a wonderful man as well... Bill Stewart :clapping: I believe Bill is the very upbeat drummer for the Gregg and Friend's Band..a fine gentleman, a pleasure to meet and chat with.... THE legendary songwriter/artist Scott Boyer:clapping: Scott is an unbelievably down to earth and general all -around- good guy...Thanks for everything Scott...looking foward to his continued artistry.. THE legendary songwriter/artist /great guitarist/grand slide guitarist Tommy Talton :clapping: all MAN comes to mind when you talk Tommy...I was told by one of his super-nice admirerers that Tommy is also an incredibly talented woodsman, and builds some of the most beautiful log homes anyone could ever hope for...gotta love that! THE legendary Johnny Sandlin :clapping: I just loved Johnny and his wife...... soft-spoken gentle people with true heart and soul...Heaven's Blue-sky his only limit... Last, but by no means least, to round out this mix of tight friends full circle...My favorite Blues-singing Country-boy/ personal favorite slide guitarist, and one of the biggest-hearted men to be born of the great state of Texas.....Lee Roy Parnell :clapping: Special thanks from both Kevin and I to Lee Roy and his beautiful Donna...you both sure have a whole lot of Soul! It is an honor to call Ya'll friends... I have read a few harsh words here on the gb, regarding some of these fine performers and gentle men, and while I sympathize with those who may have expected more, my experience was quite the contrary..... All of these performers, some we had aready known, most we met for the very first time, welcomed Kevin and I with open arms, spent countless hours with us, over the entire weekend, talking music, Brother Duane and about life in general...Did so again on tuesday..I found them one and all, as well as their family/members extremely charming and super-nice.. For more information on the Capricorn Rhythm Section contact CapricornRhythm@aol.com Because every "feels like sunday" deserves a cherry on top.......THE extra special surprise guest.....None other than Duane's very own "Little Brother" ....a Man in his own right now....Brother Gregory.... Words cannot express how thankful I felt to see the Midnight Rider and and :angel: Stacie stride into that fantastic Music Hall and Museum, a huge exhibit of this one of a kind, world's greatest ultra legendary Bluesman peeking over his shoulder, just behind him (sorry..I should have shot some pix of that exhibit!) Gregg's gaze never leaving Stacie's shining face, Lovelight in his eyes.... THANK YOU Gregg and Stacie for sharing with us fans this very personal time of the year....Righteous as a tough-fine hardtail. It occurred to me as an after thought, tuesday was exactly 3 days past the fatal anniversary....The same number of days it took Gregg to write- Aint Wasting Time..With heavey heart I couldnt help but think how real Gregg's grief continues to be , and always will....May the good Lord continue to bless the Midnight Rider... Special THANKS to Mama and Juanita for the LOVE vittles, we all LOVE you Mama! and to the gentle-folk who picked up our tab...we owe you one... Sorry to review so late..I am acting contracter for Hurricane Charley re-construction, here in our Mangrove get-away..supervised/cleaned up installation of 6 hurricane windows while juggling the Grandbabies and family all week....oy Pix of the thursday and saturday Jam For Duane/Gadsden and a few choice pix from the Jean Therapy/tribute to Waylon we squeezed in friday night , to come....including a few wonderful shots of our first lady of Peach BONNIE and her fabulous daughter Bekka....Love you Bonnie...Your Bekka is one in zillion.... and furthermore..:clapping: Brother Gerald... my hero! You and Deb were dearly missed this get together , my friends... Hope everyone enjoys the pix...... THANKS in advance to Lana-roo and Rowland...for everything.....eapfp, Ca
