Oh well, back to reality I guess. Boy, with the songs and groups you guys are talking about I'm starting to feel like a youngster. Keep it up please and next thing you know I'll have hair again.....

Barry,

Your choices are OK with me. There areonly two kinds of music Country and Western.

21st Century RV Rally

During our brainstorming session (aka shootin' the breeze) last night somebody mentioned an RV rally that will be held in Perry, GA in March 2008. We discussed the pros/cons of WBCCI versus the manner that other organizations handle their rallys.

I know WBCCI is a volunteer organization. I know the club is (ahem) a little slow to adopt change. I'm a WBCCI supporter for a variety of reasons. However, and this is a big HOWEVER... look at the web site for The Rally to be held July 2007 in Redmond, Oregon (on the web site there is a link to The Rally to be held in March 2008 in Perry, GA). The web site for The Rally is everything I'd expect to see in the 21st century. What gives? How is The Rally possible (for $339) when we paid at least that amount for the 2007 WBCCI rally and the 2008 WBCCI rally will cost even more!

The Rally 2007

The Troubs were the featured Saturday night band at Airstream's 2005 Homecoming Rally, and man did they rock! Supremely danceable, they were infectous -- hard to stand still to. And they know their rivets! Heck, we could have a Rivet Revival! Holy Shavers!! ... And an Antsy Sing-A-Long .... just follow the bouncing Rivet. Way too cool to contemplate for Boozeman.

The Rally 2007
I suspect it's because of the Rally Sponsors. That would be my guess anyways. If it's some other reason it will be interesting to know. Is anyone going to this one?

I listen to it all. I love music as long as it's melodic and I can sing along to it. Guess we've kinda sideswiped this thread.....oops! But Country Western is where I learned to sing and play so it's near and dear, but it's good old rock and roll that got me through the sixties and seventies .

Airstream sightings.

Sorry to change the subject...to a Whiter shade of another subject...but I enjoyed seeing a larger than usual number of Airstreams today. As I was patrolling the roads of White County GA I saw several traveling through. Top of Georgia AS Park in Helen, Ga is in White county. I met a few and they were coming from Perry.

Safe traveling folks and keep those aluminum beauties coming.

Mc-5

I confess, I had to go to itunes to check them out. I think that was before my time . Couldn't find anything that I had heard before but the style is certainly familiar enough.
