From what I've seen and heard of their music and show, it looks like it would integrate nicely with our name, Dodge City. I'll keep my ears open and see if I can hear anything else through the strong south wind today. |
I went and looked at them - they are quite a show it seems. Altho when they brought John Michaels..... I think his name was - to dodge the Civic Center was hardly filled - but of course that was the Highway Patrol thing and they don't exactly solicit attendance it seems to me.
I really like the riders music they are booked thru March of 08 so that's a whole year to figger it out! They are gonna be in Conroe in May and Sugarland in April (just up the road a piece for me!) - Looked like Colby in October. They certainly sound worth the drive!
If that's the kind of entertainment they are talkin bout then I say Yeeee Hawwwww - Lots of acts out there to choose from - would be a shame to think that the little Marshall act is what folks are gonna drive miles to see. They are entertaining no doubt but the same act week after week isn't gonna draw a crowd unless they have a following. Look like the riders have a heck of a following!
Thanks for sharin your info and plannin an event for me!! Man I love that Roy Rogers kinda music!
