Just wanted to give a shout out to some very special people who were at our first show. From Delaware Ohio, Owner operator 40 Degrees Media and the designer of our new website Mr. Thom Leiter with his son Atticus. Michigan Country Music Hall of Fame member and Steel/Guitar player who also sings really well too, Mr. Tim Rowley and his lovely wife Diane from Pinconning, Dennis Atnip from West Branch, ran camera for us. Bobby & Albert Champlin from Blanchard MI (Owner/Operator’s of a Family music hall) were there to offer help and suggestions for our future plans. Paul & Brenda Loomis along with Bob Cottom From the Brenda Loomis Band performed while Paul told jokes and kept the audience having fun. Jon Potrykus from Gladwin MI played fiddle while Gary McVey from Charlotte MI played the drums. Dick & Dawn Easton wonderful and knowledgeable folks, who have come to be both great friends and advisors to Sue and I over many years now. The Eastons were the previous owners and operators of the God & Country Theatre in Branson Missouri for many years during the time Sue & I were still working with Andy Williams. Linda Demske Colangelo and her friend Jim manned the ticket booth while Greg Sancrant provided Security at the door. Traci Leiter Brainard and her husband Kevin along with their newborn son, Hayden, flew all the way in from Douglas Wyoming. Traci has spent nearly her entire life on the road as a bassist and vocalist and was inducted into the Michigan Country Music Hall of Fame a few years back along with her two sisters Maryann Leiter Riveros (Piano & Vocals) and Elizabeth Leiter Boyles (Drummer & Vocalist). These are the people within the entertainment industry who were there along with many friends and neighbors from the West Branch area. We had several of Sue and I’s relatives in the audience as well from across the State who wanted to be there just to support us. We also want to say thank you to Charlie Cob owner of classichitcountry.com internet radio and of course all the people from the Quality Inn Hotel & Conference Center for hosting our event. No show would be possible without the support of our fans and listening audience of whom we are so very grateful .We are so blessed to have so many influential people in our lives. I want to simply say thank you to every one who took time out of their day to be with us on our first of what we hope to be many musical events here in West Branch.
