Thursday, April 4
We returned to their place and decided to go to a train club meeting to be held in Savannah at the Round House. It was a bit of a museum and there were around fifteen people there who are train fanatics.
Julie had also come across two free tickets to see a concert in Savannah in an old theater. The show was put on by a favorite country singer of mine, but also quite a bluegrass artist, Ricky Skaggs.
He had a whole slew of Top Ten and #1 hits from 1981 to 1989. That included eleven #1s, two #2s and six Top Tens. Now, that's some production.
Some of his hits:
"Crying My Heart Out Over You"
"I Don't Care"
"Heartbroke"
"I Wouldn't Change You If I Could"
"Highway 40 Blues"
He has a top notch band backing his as well and featured them singing and playing on some songs. They were Country Thunder.
Unfortunately, he said this show was billed as a bluegrass show and that was what he only played, none of those great country songs. But, what a show he put on and sure seemed to be enjoying himself.
Quite a Long Day. --RoadDog
