Hi Billy,
ReplyDeleteIt's been about three years since you and Stephanie were at our home in Ankeny for your house concert. We all had a great time! Jeff and I would love to be in the audience for the DVD. Great way to celebrate your 20th year in the business and our 25th year of marriage this summer. Congratulations to you!
Lisa and Jeff
We would love to be in the audience for your taping of a DVD/CD. Just call my name and I will be there!!!
ReplyDeletejust love your singing, interpretation of a song Billy! Your Ballads &u ptempo songs. I think your song< Family Man is so current & could be a huge hit on the radio. You should team up w/ Good Morning America somehow or someway to get songs heard 4 the Mass Audiences! Bought For Those Who Move America and its worth every penny! Excellent CD, I play all the time! I met you at NCCC College 10/20 I believe 5 yrs ago already, Boy how time flies I won thru WYRK 106.5 in Buffalo, NY to meet you. My old computer crashed & I lost the pic of us! It was in the same room I took acting Classes @ the College yrs. before. That acoustic Concert was amazing, your Voice so pure! I saw you again at Shea's buffalo Perf. Arts Theatre for a Kenny Rogers Christmas Show w/ you & your daughter, Hannah performing. You will always be one of my fav't Artists of any genre. You are such a professional and simply put a very nice, respectful human being! I miss seeing you perform! I had open heart surgery at age 47 on April 2nd this yr. suddenly (your 47th BirthdayI. I wasn't akake on your day at all having gone under twice from complications. Yet I am Home & off work for 8 wks. recovering. i turn 48 on May 3rd ( ayoung one at that, you are as old as you look and feel!) Well, I just wanted to say Happy Belated Birthday and tell you how much I appreciate your Music, always! You are and forever will be a Class Act! Wishing you & your family all God's blessings! sincerely, Mitch duguay of East Amherst, NY
ReplyDeleteHi Billy - LOVE the new site and being able to see what you're up to now that you are no longer touring. (which makes me very sad) I have been a fan for close to the 20 years that you are celebrating. You didn't get to the Northwest very often, but when you did I was there cheering and supporting you 100%! I think last year at CMA Festival you thought my friend and I were stalkers (sorry about that)! I squeezed in five Billy sightings while I was at the festival including 3rd and Lindsley. It totally made my first trip to Nashville complete. It almost reached the high point of sharing a chocolate covered strawberry with you at the Valentines Day fund raiser in Portland Oregon a few years ago!! Sure would love to be there for the taping of the new DVD!! Take care and keep in touch!

Hi Billy~
ReplyDeleteThanks for all the updates and keeping your fans in the loop! You know Denise and I would love to be in Nashville for the taping of your DVD. It's been a long time since Jackpot!

Hey Billy,
ReplyDeleteWould love to be there and meet some friends and family from Quincy and Greensboro. We could have a rockin' good time!!
Janet
Hey Billy,
ReplyDeleteI just heard you at the folk festival and to be honest, I can't remember why I had gotten away from your music and I am sorry I did. It was one of the best live performances I have seen in a long while and I really enjoyed it. As a 7th generation Floridian, I feel a bit of connection to your music.
I wanted to see if you had planned on recording or somehow making available your "cape" song you sang that night. I cannot find it anywhere.
Anyway, thanks for a great night of music!
Randall

ReplyDeletehi billy,
ReplyDeletethis is jany the park managers daughter from the folk festival. i wanted to say hi and thanks for the picture with me, my friend and my mom, and we can't wait to see if you and hannah come back next year! oh and please tell hannah i said hi, she may not remember who i am but i went up with me my dad and my friend to the fan table and told her hi.
Hey Billy...over the last twenty years, my wife and I have seen you perform almost sixty times. We have seen you become famous, start a family, and grow as a performer. Nothing would make my wife happier than to be a part of your twenty year celebration. It's a long trip from Michigan but it would be well worth it. You have always had some devoted fans from the north and you still do judging from what I have read in your blogs. Good luck with the new record and we look forward to seeing you real soon on the road.
