Tribute To The Legends
“You Be The Star”
Opera House Anson, Texas
Saturday May 5, 2007
The show was a sell out, not even standing room Saturday night. They brought chairs in and lined up along the outer walls of the opera House. The show went on for 3 hours, the people
did NOT want it to end.
Rudy Grant as Charley Pride, got sick and could
barely talk when he called to tell me he would
not be able to make the show.
The artists that performed were,
Sam Allen (Patsy Cline)
Mary McDonald (Kitty Wells)
She even plays the guitar as Kitty did.
Mary Lee Vinson (Anne Murray)
Willie Luster (Hank Williams Sr,)
Had his son with him playing a
fantastic fiddle on those Hank songs
Danny Letz from Anson, played the
steel guitar for us, and he too added a lot
to the Hank songs as well as the other songs.
They looked and sounded so much like the
artists they portrayed it gave ya chills.
Johnny Moore was happy to be playing in his hometown and he too did a great job. He has
his nephew Kenny Moore with him playing
some lead and rthym guitar.
When we got all the artists the performed and those that auditioned, but did not get to be on the show
on stage for the finale of....I Saw The Light...with
Willie Luster (Hank Williams) leading it off,
we got a standing ovation!!!
The folks in Anson want to make this a yearly show!!!
Several folks told us we need to take that show
on the road. So far everyone wants to go for it.
