Kenny Rogers and Jerry Reed stayed at a hotel where my mother worked as a night auditor. I happened to be doing a Job Shadow project for school the night they both came down and shared a pot of coffee and some humorous stories with us. Not once did I think to ask for an autograph, I was only 12 at the time and didn't realize they were famous!

I was a country disc jockey for about 12 years, I loved it! Got to meet Johnny Cash, The Statler Brothers, Charlie Pride, The Kendalls and some others. Was a great time in my life!

I met Conway Twitty once way back in the 60's, he was doing a personal appearance at a music store. He had a huge head full of glossed-up hair and smelled like a cologne factory. But he was real nice to me!

In Oz
When I was kid, my folks would take me to all the country shows as they came through town. After the concerts we would stay behind and talk to the singers. The two most memorable were Slim Dusty and John Williamson.
God bless Slim Dusty

When I was eight, I bumped into Roy Acuff at his record shop/museum in Nashville. Minnie Pearl was there, too.
My proudest moment was interviewing Bill Anderson for a magazine in 1992.
