Thanks to Mike and Sandy the owners of Nashville North and T-N-T and the Dynamite Cowboys the house band for Nashville North and our best friends.  Sue and I get to spend time back stage with the Stars.  Below are a few pictures of entertainers we have had the pleasure of meeting.

T. Graham Brown is one of my all time favorite entertainers and I have been able to spend some time getting to know him, what a great guy.  The picture on the left is at Nashville USA and the one on the right is at "The Ole Red Barn" in Pittsfield, Illinois.

 

Neal McCoy.  What a great show, he does not follow a script or song list, he just comes out and entertains.  I have had the privilege of meeting him a couple times and just being able to set and talk.  He loves his fans and is always there for them.

Merle Haggard. What can I say, the meeting was brief but I will never forget it.

 

 

 I got to take the pictures of Miranda Lambert and TNT & the Dynamite Cowboys, but
 I didn't get one of her and I.  
 
Miranda is nominated for Best Female Country Vocal Performance for "Kerosene"!



 I started 2007 off by getting to spend some time with Billy Joe Royal (Down in the Boon Docks) and B.J. Thomas. 
 

While I was out doing charity work, my wife got to spent time with Charlie Daniels.  Lucky Charlie


Now she is with Jeff Cook (From the group "Alabama").



I got to spend a little time with Lori Morgan.

 

 

Aaron Tippin, T-N-T and the Dynamite Cowboys and me.


Back stage with Andy Griggs and Tammie Welch.

 

 

 


Whispering Bill Anderson, what a great show.

 

Billy Currington is one of the most popular up and coming stars out of Nashville.

 

 Being back stage with Billy Dean and his kids was great fun.

 


Blake Shelton was really tall, but I don't think Sue cared.

 

Buddy Jewell is the one on the right.  Check his web site by clicking on his name.
Look at the
A SALUTE to the AMERICAN SOLDIER


This is Darryl Worley loving up my wife.

 

With Gene Watson and I being the same age, we could be brothers.  What a great guy.

 

Jim Ed Brown and Helen Cornelius were just fun.  Jim loves to talk, so we got along well!

 

This is Jimmy Wayne.  Remember that name, he is new and he is writing some great songs.

 

John Berry has one of the best tenor voices I have ever heard in person.  If you get the chance go see him.



Julie Roberts with TNT and the Dynamite Cowboys.  I didn't get a picture with her but I got to take the picture.


 This is Keith Anderson with TNT.  I took several pictures but none with Sue or I.


I really loved Little Big Town.  They were such a personable group and friendly to everyone.  The girl to my left is Jenny Lee who is a friend and on of the up coming new stars.


Little Texas put on quite a show.

 

 Mark Wells, what a fun guy.  He made back stage very exciting for everyone.  Remember what happens back stage, stays back stage.  Got you wondering don't I?


Jimmy Fortune spent 21 years with the Statler Brothers and one night with Sue and I.


T.G. Sheppard has had 21 top ten country hits, but tonight was a hit with Sue and I.  T.G. and Jimmy Fortune are traveling together and make a great team.  With each putting on a separate show it make for an evening of wonderful entertainment.

Rodney Atkins 2 smash hits, "If You're Going Through Hell" and "Watching You".  This man is tall and very nice guy.


Craig Morgan hits as I Got You, Redneck Yacht Club, and the poignant Almost Home, as well as That’s What I Love About Sunday, which spent five weeks at No. 1 and ended 2005 as country radio’s most played song of the year.  It was a treat meeting this great entertainer.

Mickey Gilley getting along real well with Sue.  He still sounds as good as ever.
