Miranda James opened for him. She was a sweetheart, & was nice enough to pose with my cousin for a photo! If I recall, I think she gave him a kiss on the cheek! I had a great time that night!
    I love the music! Today's stuff is a lot of junk! Bring on country from the 80s, & beyond!

    There's not another singer that sounds remotely like John Anderson. He's one of the best in my opinion.

      yea he has an unusual vocal. hard to describe, breathy? maybe. I get a kick out of imitating his voice.

      Listen to Lefty Frizzell. He was John's vocal inspiration thoughout his whole career.

    If you dream of being a one-hit-wonder in this world this is the kind of song you dream of coming up with....so simple..maybe a touch of *corny* or silliness, and the next thing you know BAM - country glory....and performer/songwriting immortality. (and maybe a Wiki page).
