By Soul Sister (65.43.150.250) on Tuesday, May 20, 2003 - 03:43 pm:

Well Dell I could divide the groups into 50s & 60s, therefore I'd like to add one of my favorites Walter Jackson, also Barbara Lewis, Savannah Churchill, Austin Powell, & maybe The Flamingoes.SMILING...

By DELL (12.14.39.66) on Tuesday, May 20, 2003 - 03:57 pm:

WOW, NOT ONLY WILL THESE CONCERTS BE EXPENSIVE BUT LONG TOO

By Soul Sister (65.43.150.250) on Tuesday, May 20, 2003 - 04:16 pm:

Dell; I figured I could divide the groups into two concerts, first show a late 40s thru 50s concert, second show a 60s thru early 70s concert, and charge $100.00 a seat, I'd want to see those legedary acts and get to hang out backstage with those who are old friends and make some new ones. Back down memory lane its got to be all good! S.S.

By DELL (12.14.39.66) on Tuesday, May 20, 2003 - 05:27 pm:

Well I don't know about that R&B but I promote my ol'man in everyway(he-he) as well as being his caretaker, manager, & part time booking agent. Between home & the road, don't think I'd have time to do that but sure wish somebody else would produce that SHOW! I see you like Redd Foxx, my ol'man would love that, he & Redd were like brothers back in the 40s. S.S.
