The “Patsy Cline and Friends” show was for the most part
terrific. The band was tight , they were talented, and the singer, C.J Newsom, at
about 30 years old, could really belt out the tunes. But there was just one
glaring problem with the show. About every 20 minutes or so a “so-called”
comedian would come on stage and spew forth total nonsense, completely ruining the
momentum and mood of the evening. This is a town that thrives on musical
productions. They should have producers that know what works and what
doesn’t.
Imagine a few Patsy
Cline classics, culminating in Sweet Dreams, and then this;
This young lady and the band have more than enough talent to carry the
show by themselves, they really didn't need the annoyance, in my opinion. Yet sadly, a small percentage of the audience
found him hilarious. I guess in this town, you need to have something for everyone.
We took another trip on the river yesterday, downstream this
time. Gorgeous day and it was warm. We went about 6 miles, almost to the dam.
We were under the trestle just as the train went by overhead.
We saw some wildlife.
And you just have to see the guard dogs. These guys were "on the job" at the park in Branson
We did another 300+ miles today and we're just east of St. Louis.
