2. I was never a country fan but always liked them way back when on the Tonight Show.

And then hearing Flowers On The Wall on the Pulp Fiction soundtrack made me like them even more.

Congrats to them. :toast:

3. I saw them in concert, at the Sheboygan County Fair.

About 10 years ago.

Harold (the bass singer) was just a total cutup. :D

7. Yeah, he is hilarious, isn't he?

:D Really nice, too - actually, all of them are. Very down-to-earth, friendly, and all-around great guys. (I'm originally from their hometown, so I used to see them around town when I was younger, and it's always impressed me how genuine they were - I don't think I even realized how big of a deal they were until I was in my teens, because they were just regular folks whenever I would see them out and about.) :hi:

8. It was sad though, when Lew DeWitt died.

9. Lew DeWitt was pretty much before my time.

:( He died when I was three or four, I think, but of course by then he had already left the group. His influence is still apparent in the area, though - one of Waynesboro's main roads is Lew DeWitt Boulevard, and certainly a lot of people remember him fondly. :hi:

11. He wrote their bioggest hits.

Including "Flowers On The Wall."

6. About damn time! :-)

:bounce: :bounce:

(Yes, I'm biased. Grew up in their hometown, saw their 4th of July concert every year until they stopped doing it...they are really nice guys, and talented too.) :) :hi:
