Eddie Lange with Bill Anderson

Kevin Lange · Post by **Kevin Lange** » 4 May 2006 12:02 pm

My son Eddie went to work for Whisperin' Bill a couple of weeks ago. Eddie is very happy with his new job. Things seem to be going very well. His mother Kathy and I, along with his brother Harry couldn't be more pleased or proud of his accomplishments. The Bill Anderson Show will be in the Wisconsin Dells on June 24th, at the Midwest Country Theater in Sandstone, MN on June 25th and here at home in St. Cloud, MN on June 26th. Our thanks go out to the steel guitar community for always supporting the efforts of young players.

Seems strange to congratulate parents on their son becoming a "Po Boy".... but in this instance, it is well deserved. Best wishes for his young career.

Guarantee you one thing. Bill and the entire band are nothing but class. I know he will have a great time! If he can just get Les Singer to get that telecaster in tune...hehehehe....

Kevin,
I enjoyed listening to your son Eddie play this past weekend at the Opry with Whisperin' Bill. He did a superb job, played all the parts just like he had been playing them for years. Fine player and young man.
