First Class Entertainment

We went to the show last night to see the Oak Ridge Boys. They were very good. Put on a great show and the music was great. They sang for an hour and a half. Afterwards we came back to the motorhome and visited a bit with Ward and Patty while we exercised our dogs.

Today we broke camp and left the fairgrounds at 10:30 am and took the "red roads" down to Lake City, Florida. We are in a very nice Passport America camp with full hookups. We ran out and got a few supplies tonight before we head out tomorrow. We are going to try and get into the Escapees park at Bushnell tomorrow. We want to be in place when the race starts Sunday and then Monday we plan on hitting Webster for the flea market. After that, we are on our way to Melbourne.

Till next time. . .

Can those be the same 'Boys' as I heard on the radio in Canada about 30 years ago ??!!!

It was my first trip to North America and my friend and I had never heard country music before and that name, Oak Ridge Boys, has stuck in my mind as it was so unusual to us.

Grief they must be geriatrics by now if it's still them........or are they like a lot of old group names and have a completely different line up now ?

They are one and the same. They have been together since the 1970's. The keyboardist has been with them for 27 years. The drummer in the group is William Lee Golden's (the bearded one)son.

They are fabulous and harmonize so beautifully.

They mentioned that the Statler Brothers and Alabama who were closest to their style of music have since retired and they (the Oak Ridge boys) just got new busses.
