John, I'm not sure what type of "payback" Paul is talking about,but you can bet he will make it well worth "his" while.

As always,Barbara and I are looking forward to the OSGA show in Tulsa. The Oklahoma guys really know how to put on a show. I'd like to say to those who have not been to the Tulsa show to do yourself a favor and make plans to attend this great show. Memorial Day weekend is not too far off.
See yall soon in Tulsa,
...Roy

John
Barbara and I are looking forward to this years show. We had such a great time last year and have waited all this time for the next show. It will be good to see many of my friends including you, Don, Roy and Barbara Rosetta, Bobby Seymour, Jim & Barbara Clark, and of course all the other players. It's a great show and we can't wait.
See you in May.

Thanks guys and ladies - we too are looking forward as always to the show and seeing you also. Things are really beginning to pick up speed now as it draws closer. The hotel is already receiving calls for rooms and that is a very good indication word is getting around. We are looking forward to seeing everyone again and hearing some great playing. Jody, we have you down for playing and the MC chores. Great players are coming in so everyone come on and join us May 28, 29, 30, 2004, Tulsa Airport Radisson Inn.

I just spoke with the hotel staff at the Radisson in Tulsa (3-22-04 @ 11am) and it is going to be a sell out. Management told me there are some rooms still available. So if you are planning on staying at the Radisson, might want to call them very soon. Their number is (918) 835-9911.
