       Currently Tom is in the process of formulating 'the groupings'
       that will
       take the stage for our 'get this' NINTH STRAIGHT YEAR honoring
       the
       Ventures.
       In connection with that, our little 'dynamo' (10) year old
       drummer,
       Danny Roberts, hailing from Paint Lick, Kentucky will be
       front & center with his own band this time around.
       Let's help surround him with our finest players for the
       following songs:
       GREEN ONIONS- Bob Spalding, Jim Bryant, John Magee
       TRAMBONE- Bob Spalding, Joe Klink, John Magee
       HOME- Bob Spalding, Jim Bryant, John Magee
       MEET MR. CALLAHAN- Ken Arnold, Walt Stagner, John Magee
       MR. MOTO- Walt Stagner, Jim Bryant, John Magee
       AME NO MIDOSUJI- Walt Stagner, Bob Spalding, Jim Bryant, John
       Magee
       BLUE MOON- Jeff & Grant Green
       BLACK SAND BEACH- Jeff & Grant Green, Bob Kenney
       GHOST RIDERS- Kanad & Saugata Ghose, Joe Klink

       If you can provide any additional info that might help players,
       let me know.

       Dan isn't hard set on these tunes. If someone wants to make a
       suggestion for a different tune, he has plenty of time to learn
       it (assuming he doesn't already know it). He just wants to play
       with other musicians that love The Ventures.

       Maria- Tom here.   Thanx for gettin' back to Walt
       with the 'Night Train' clarification.   We 'pretty
       much' at this point, have to stick to Danny's 'ten'
       song set 'cause I've been assigning the lead parts.
       Still not sure who will be playing bass or rhythm to
       each song but am making 'good progress' filling out
       his band.
