That day Doc and I had Sonny Garrish steel, Bruce Watkins fiddle/banjo, and All to name a few led by Gary Prim. Bobby was a master at the guitar and he will be sadly missed by many in our ministry. BTW. I too love to hear and watch tenors like Garry, Ernie, and Eric. They have an edge that keeps the performance alive for my personal preference.

Maybe it's time for a new make up artist. Boy old Harry Peters thinks the princess looks a little rough in that video clip. Maybe it’s time for a new make up artist.

I was there for another program recently and I counted the seats. They had 15 rows of chairs and the whole conference opened and it would only hold 550 - 600 people. musiklover….count the seats when you go next year or check the Smokey Mountain Convention Seating Charts, you’ll see it won’t possibly seat 700 people.

We weer there all week and we had general admissin tix and we had trouble finding seats everynight but Wed, and Sat. Only 2/3 full, you need glasses man.. It wasn't packed, but it was more than that full. Be real! And I heard it held 700-750. We won't miss you next year if you can't be more optimistic than that. #53 We must not have been in the same place.

You be the judge if it is full is that a good crowd? We were there Monday night and it wasn't 2/3 full. I won't be going back. They had speakers on the floor and the sound was too loud in the front part of the auditorium and not loud enough in back. Speakers should have at least been on stage level but better if they had been on stands higher. Ron #47, That auditorium only seats around 500 to 550.

I'm especially interested in getting a copy of the Southern Selections Vol II with Anthony Facello. Does anybody know if that's the one that has Gonna Be Movin on it? Any information would be greatly appreciated. Anybody have any idea where to go to purchase some old Mercy’s Mark CDs?

I guess it was a good idea to move this concert to the Great Smoky Mts. #36 Everyone is saying a good crowd but still no Number.

Are they on the tour now? I have to say though they were pretty amazing. I was at the Gaither show in Corbin KY and I saw Mike & Kelly Bowling singing there. Are they on the tour now?

I cannot agree more with Montana Man...Neil Enloe is totally deserving of being in the SGM Hall of Fame. A total class act, a kind and humble man. He and the original Couriers represent all that's good in the music we love. Most of all, when I was a whole lot younger, Neil, Dave and Duane invested themselves in my life; not financially, but in ways more necessary and more fondly remembered. They invested themselves...their time, encouragement, honesty, and taught me life lessons that I've never forgotten. Congratulations, Neil. Few are as deserving of this as you are, although I'd love to see Dave and Duane so honored as well. May I give my "Well Done!", at least until you hear it from the One Who really matters.
