Had no idea. I just never listen to country. I change the TV if it’s on. Change the radio. Don’t go to places that play country. I’d rather watch Mississippi Rebel women’s golf or Hillary Clinton speak than listen to country music.

Statler Brothers with Grandpa Jones who was last minute fill in for Barbara Mandrell who was sick.
First one that I remember is Stevie Nicks and there are others. They’ll come to me but, hey, it was college and there likely were libations involved, making recollections a little slow in coming. :)
First post here fellas; moving over from years at Genespage. Good to be with y’all!!

Yep. It was at the height of Blues Travelers popularity and the Brothers were still early in their 90's "come back".Quote:
