There is not contract for NRPS. We've contacted several groups for entertainment, but no contracts have been signed. Not sure why they have it listed on their webpage.

This is the ultimate band for this venue, the ultimate theme to attract in the membership to Gillette, New Riders of the Pruple Sage...

My vote says BOOK EM!

I know I don't have a vote, so I respectfully put in a huge PLEASE!

[Rob Nye]

Getting a quality act such as the NRPS would take the bullets out of the guns of the folks that are all bent about the venue.

Apparently they want to play and we want them to play so let's get it done! If it is on their website signing the contract must be a formality at this point.

I hope the rest of the entertainment is as good! Nice job folks!

[Oldhway]

who?


God, you must have led a sheltered life. Think Psychedelic Country Rock. if the "Who?" refers to Henry, all you need to know is:

"Henry got pissed off and said he'd run to Mexico". It was a trip in search of ahh... herbal fullfillment. Nuff said?

Now I have to dig out the old Denim jacket with the 10" NRPS patch on the back. What will i tell my kids?

Absolutely Book 'em. :clap :clap :clap :clap :clap

[Bokrijder]

It's posted on their website as a tour date. A private party featuring the Sage -- Da-------ng. If true, it will do more to boost attendance than any day-pass possibly could. Maybe, the rabbit has just emerged from the hat.

[Rapid_Roy]

True or not, I was planning on having fun anyway.

[bobs98]

New Riders playin' the rally will only increase my level of disappointment that I cannot attend.
Excellent choice, especially considering the location. How appropriate!

Vote yes for a "Alternative smoking" section...:hungover

[macsindian]

:thumb Let me be the first to say ... Far Out !!!! Last saw them play it was near Dallas in 1973. 1 year later I moved to Austin where you could hear their music and much more like it on KOKE-FM radio. no joke.

[Oldhway]

It is a shame that their original Pedal Steel/banjo player is no longer with us.

[barryg]

My favorite band at a MOA national was Ray Benson and Asleep at the Wheel at the DuQuoin, Il. National, but hey I'm easy to please. NRPS, can't wait to see and hear em. Hope They don't shut done the beer garden while their playing, that happened at least once at a past national.

We tried for Asleep at the Wheel, but they will be in Europe:mad

The Beer Garden was shut down in Lima (I think), but that's because George was in concert. Our entertainment will be in the evening in conjunction with the BG:dance

10-4 Carol. I'm ready for the rally:dance :drink

Hey all,

The Beer Garden in Lima was NOT shut down. George's contract stated that no bottles or cans were allowed. Seems he had been hit with a container on stage in the past. We complied and all beverages were served in plastic cups from before he started til he was off stage. I remember it well. Pouring into cups created a lot of extra work for our staff.

Also, the stage was right next to the Beer Garden and the speakers were pointed away from us. We were therefore behind the band and couldn't tell one song from another. We didn't really hear the concert at all, just noise.:banghead :banghead

tb

P.S. I remember the 60's and I WAS there.

[Hodag]

instead of some aging hippys how about some "Country"

[manicmechanic]

Hey, Mark, listen to the music and then decide.:bolt

Ah, yes, working the beer garten during the concert, I remember it well. BTW, just how was the concert?

my 8-track broke in the pinto

I think I resemble that remark.

Sugarland would be awesome at a rally as would Little Texas (who are back together) or Restless Heart (who are back together as well.). And there is always Travis Tritt who does a hell of a show. Hmmm, to early to look at "09?

[Oldhway]

my 8-track broke in the pinto
:laugh

I resemble that too. You spying on me?
I had a Pinto with an 8 track player. I spent big bucks getting all seperate Panasonic components. It was the Cat's Ass.

Amen to that ,I remember it well,listening to the thirsty customers complaining because they had to wait,while we poured the beer into the cups,am sure it was a great concert,from all the reports we got to hear as they concert goers would rush in,smiling.

+1 NRPS pretty much always had a country sound with some bluegrass mixed in because of David Nelson's roots.

Has NRPS been confirmed by the Rally Committee.. Last thing I read is that nothing had been decided even though the rally was added as a date on the New Riders website

[The_Veg]

It was the Cat's Ass.

I always wondered about that saying. If something is 'the cat's ass' does that mean that that something also needs a litterbox? :scratch :scratch :scratch

Yes, I agree, and I'm still pouting and somewhat amazed that Karol and crew at BMWMOA have not jumped at the opportunity to book this great band, and let us know what’s up here...

You want to up the attendance? Book This Band!!

Anybody from the rally committee even listening here?

[erickson9502]

New Riders of the Purple Sage. Guess the BMOA is trying to get the senior crowd enthused. Because it will not get the young people. I would rather hear a local cover band than from a group that pre-dates 8 track.

[HankPfister]

:dance Now Ericson, you need to be more open minded! Just because NRPS pre dates 8 tracks, doesn't mean you can't enjoy their music. Maybe you just need a hit of some of that blotter stuff we slipped under our tongue when we plugged in an 8 track back in the day:dance ;)

[KGT1200]

Yep, tell me about it; so many of those bands on 8 track are just not worth our time; take the rolling stones, they were on 8 track,and are not good enough for our rally, or maybe Bob Dylan, or Crosby Stills and Nash; now theres another band form the 8 track days that using the "Ericson scale of whose good" would be past tense; yea maybe we should get the local warm up band, no talent in anybody over 50, so you think?

humbug

Seems to me someone in VT set up projection onto a makeshift screen, and had movies. (don't know about cartoons) We have a theater (indoor) and may be able to show movies. Check your rally program.:lurk
