MAB,
Loved your stories (as usual). Thanks for increasing the font size on your text, that makes a huge difference for us old guys.
Hey, something I found interesting about your Garth Brooks story. You mentioned Garth was scheduled for his Bluebird performance (which resulted in him getting a deal), by replacing Ralph Murphy, that couldn't make it that night. I was curious about Ralph's age at the time. According to Wikipedia, Ralph was born in 1944 making him around 44 years old in 1988, around the time Garth was signed.
Wouldn't Ralph had been somewhat old to be signed as an artist; or because of his previous success, was Ralph being considered for a songwriting deal??? Just curious.
Maybe the artist's age wasn't that big of an issue back then like it is today.
Hey, I'm really happy to hear your show was a success and you loved being part of the Bluebird experience again.
Good luck with your Tour today.
