I have just returned from Memphis where we had a ton of fun at the Ameripolitan Awards Last Night.<\/a> i’m just getting over the high of my buddy O’l W.B. Walker winning the D.J. of the year award, and you’ll see me spend time with him in west Virginia this spring, for his fifth anniversary show. You WILL see more on that upcoming event on here very soon.<\/p>\n

We have been promoting both new albums for some time now and earlier today I published the articles that Mr. Joshua Wallace wrote for Mr.Craig Gerdes<\/a> AND Mr. Dallas Moore<\/a> this morning. I would like to thank Mr. Brian over at Sol Records<\/a> for inviting me here tonight.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

We’re also here tonight to celebrate Mr. Jim Vest’s birthday tonight, Mr. Jim Vest was the original steel guitarist for Johnny Paycheck, who also recorded “Slide Off Your Satin Sheets” in 1977, AND ALSO for Mr. Craig Gerdes now. In 2014, Mr. Gene Watson covered the song on his album ‘My Heroes Have Always Been Country”. I study my history and I love my steel players for sure.<\/p>\n

I have been long awaiting what Mr. Craig will bring to the table tonight here at the Palace, and the show is about to begin here tonight. He is playing the album in it’s entirety tonight, and with great anticipation from me as a music fan for sure! I didn’t catch the bass players last name but his name was Mr. Chris, now the band mind you played pretty damn good timing up there. A lot of work went into this project here, as you can easily ascertain at first glance.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

First up was the song “Redneck Sonsabitches”, now the second song was called “Learned From The Best” and that was written by Mr Craig and Miss Sarah Gayle Meech, who I recently saw this weekend at the Ameripolitan Awards as well. That’s a really good shuffle song you can get up and dance to, and I can see the signature Sarah Gayle Meech style to it. He followed that by the song “Good Old days” which was also a self penned about his father. It truly was a great slow mover to get close up and dance to and Mr. Jake Baxter had some great guitar licks in there as well.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

‘Slide Off Your Satin Sheets” was next which was placed really well to bring excitement to the middle of the show here, followed by  “Almost Takes my mind Off You”. His band is a damn well oiled machine for sure, especially his drummer Mr. Randy Joy as he throws his sticks around and keeps timing up. Mr. Jim Vest is making that steel guitar whine and cry during this song, I watch things and I NOTICE little details I am trained to notice. Media reporting is more than just pictures and writing, ANYBODY can write…is the kick drum in time with the bass man?<\/p>\n
