BURLINGTON OPRY NEWS
Howdy folks!!  The 50s and 60s rock show is this Saturday night,  Feb 21st at 7:00.  We will be featuring David Hammersmith’s brother Chuck Hammersmith.  Chuck visits us every few months and we have a blast playing music with him.  He is one of the members of the 50s and 60s group, Silverstone.  He has picked out some wonderful music for this show.  We also have Lorena Prater from Vasaar.  Lorena is up to her usual antics.  Mark Paquette will be filling in on drums again. 

Katie is out of the hospital.  She went back to school this week.  She is going to try to sing Saturday night.  She said she would let us know how she felt Saturday as to if she would sing.

See you when the curtains open.

Dave

Howdy folks.  This Saturday night at the Burlington Opry we are having our oldies show with  have Don Erbert, retired elvis singer.  He sings elvis, Tom Jones, Willie Nelson and others.  He is coming out of retirement to do this show.  He claims this is his last show, but we’ll see.  Along with Don, we have Lorena Prater from Vasaar.  Lorena is well known in the area.  She is one of the great performers that graces our stage.  We also have Dan Wooge (no relation)  ha ha.  Dan Don and I used to travel together and do road shows.  It will be fun having us back together again.  Don’s granddaughter Jordan will be singing with us, and we have a surprise guest from Kansas City to sing a great 70’s song.  He is wonderful.  Jody, Dave, Dave, Mark, Katie, Erin and guest jim Welty will be entertaining you all evening.  Plan to arrive early for good seating.  The weather looks to be fine and last year on this show we almost sold out….

See you when the curtain opens.
