In years past, you could by an "upgraded" ticket that allowed you to have a meet and greet lunch with the artists. I don't know if they're doing anything like that this year, or not.

I've purchased my tickets. My date will be Timmy, my 4 yr old. I'm taking him as the last part of his birthday present.

My favorite is when I was on my way to Washington DC. I flew AA through DFW.

There was this horrendous dust storm that shut down the airport and so I couldn't go on to DC.

I booked a room in the Stockyards at Embassy Suites.

Turned on the little clock radio and heard Justin saying he was live from the White Elephant! Right down stairs! With Wade Bowen.

I flew down the elevator to the WE and had the best time listening to Justin and Wade and the crowd. It was so much fun. I never for a minute cared that I didn't make my destination.

Everyone knows how big Justin's heart is...he cares...he cares about his family...he cares about other families...and he cares about the music. But one of the reasons I adore him is simply because his dream and his vision let's me enjoy things like this...

I thought it was insurance seminar....a 3 car insurance seminar? It's been years since I've heard it, so I could be remembering wrong.

My favorite Justin memory, though, was winning tix for Randy playing at the ballpark a couple of years ago on July 3rd. I got a call from him about how to pick the tix up and then met him at the recording, he was the nicest guy...talked to me and my friend like he'd known us for a while.

My favorite memory is just getting to hang out with Justin and his family and holding his kids when they were both little bitty babies!!! Its hard to believe the little girl isn't really little anymore and that little boy I held last year he's not so little anymore either!! they are growing so fast Justin. Justin has done so much for Texas music and I want to thank him for bringing it to those of us who wouldn't have ever learned about it without him!!! Being at the Pickin For Preemies last year was a blast and it won't be the same without him if he isn't there!!!

Not being in the DFW area very much, my favorite Justin memory is last years Pickin for Preemies concert. Watching him bring his babies out on stage and enjoying the music as much as we all were. This is one of my favorite concerts ever. Adam Hood filling in at the last minute, Walt and Tina duet, beautiful location on the lake, great friends, amazing musicians with the biggest hearts, and a great cause. There is nothing better.

Hey Folks,

First off, God Bless Ya for all the nice words. I can't even begin to tell you how much all of this means. Thank you from the very bottom of my heart.

Now....FYI

We all are very award of Boland's situation and boy, I know we've all been praying for him. Since he had to back out, I had to replace him. So I am very excited to announce that BRANDON JENKINS will be taking his place. Thanks again to Brandon for coming to bat.

AND...Do I have some surprises! Don't guess, you'll all be wrong! HaHa!
