Neil & The Dancing Labrador
Being a huge Texas fan, and them having heavyweights Tex Ritter and Texas Tornadoes, they rocked it; however, Texas had 5 numbers to shine with and Tennesse only had 4 songs to show their versatility...........so I will throw them an empathy vote this time. But both states put the shine on yer shoes!!! Amen!

8:58 AM, March 30th, 2024
N & DL
Well Michel and Jodie have a new fan in the house!
