Who is coming to Thomasville? We always have a good time at a very nice place!

Looks like Anna and I are set to go. I have been practicing and I should do a lot better than last time. I do not want any one to walk in back of my Steel and gear so nothing gets broken like last time.

Well, Glen, guess it's the same ole thing for me.....Gotta play Friday night and Saturday night gigs up this way. Will be at the Ice House Friday night and down in Clinton Saturday night. One of these days I'm gonna get to come to a MASGA deal. Hope you guys have as much fun as you always do there.

Hey friends,

I sure am looking forward to this one. I've got alot of family in NC, maybe I can get some of them to get off the golf course long enough to come hear some good music. I've been at the Kanapolis show several times, but this will be my first time in Thomasville. I've heard great things about the facility, and as hard as ER, Kevin, and all the others work to make everything just right, I know we're in for a big time.

Ray Walker, I was hoping to see you again, it's been way too long. Maybe next time.

See ya soon,
Jim

Hi to all of you picking friends and listener supporters too!
We are really looking forward to the music and fellowship.

Ray Walker, sorry you're not able to be here.As for Glenn, Allen, Sam, Ray it will be great seeing all of you.

I'm told Delores Simmons will be there with shoes kicked off doing her thing. I saw her a few months ago and she did a great job.

The band alone will be worth coming out for. I can't wait!
Anybody else put there coming shoot us a note.

In the mean time.
Blessings to all,
Kevin

Hey Jim,

Yep it's been way too long and a lot of water under the bridge since we saw each other. Hope you are doing well my friend. I hear all the folks complaining that there's no work for musicians so I feel very fortunate to have gigs lined up....but it does come with a price. I will think of you guys and hope I can get to the next one. Hey Kevin, hope this finds you doing well. Tell all the gang I said a great big howdy

Hey Glen, I just talked to Kay and it looks like we'll be able to make this one as I'm not booked on Friday night that week. Is it OK to bring my Telecaster too?

Ray, sorry you won't be able to make it to this one, it'd be great to see you again and let you see how your great pack seat is holding up, I love it....JH in Va.

Jerry Hayes R.I.P. · Post by **Jerry Hayes R.I.P.** » 23 Jul 2011 10:50 am

Jerry, It will be good to see & hear you again.
Jim, I was hoping to hear you again! Maybe you are not coming since I will be there!

Jim Thompson · Post by **Jim Thompson** » 26 Jul 2011 6:02 am

You stood me up the last time, but I forgive you. Maybe the next one will be when I'm not working.

Sam White R.I.P. · Post by **Sam White R.I.P.** » 26 Jul 2011 5:47 pm

Just a little over a week away. I have been practicing my butt off and I will keep practicing and hope I don't get nervous and mess up.Anna is helping me buy telling me to slow down and don't look at people when I'm playing and I should be OK.Maybe I should ware a blind fold. No that would be no good I won't be able to see were to move the bar to.Can't wait to see a lot of friends we have in MASGA
