  • Texan Michael Martin Murphey Decorates Christmas with Western Spirit
    TEXAN MICHAEL MARTIN MURPHEY DECORATES CHRISTMAS WITH WESTERN SPIRIT Dallas native continues his Cowboy Christmas tour tradition with Greenville Municipal Auditorium concert No Santa Claus. No reindeer. No Frosty the Snowman. Michael Martin Murphey’s picturesque Christmas comes decorated by wide open blue skies, rows of snow-dusted pines, a warmly lit log cabin and a flickering camp fire. Murphey’s treasured Cowboy Christmas concerts, a tradition now more than two decades strong, explores the humanity and spirituality of the season. It delves into the American heritage of Christmas organically and universally. It strips down the highly commercial holiday to its bare essentials in an effort to present a richer, more rewarding experience for the audience. “What I try to do is encourage people to think of the spirit of giving, charity and forgiving, which is the spirit of Christmas,” Murphey, 69, says by phone from his ranch in Amarillo, Texas. “It’s not about cramming a Christmas message down people’s throats. It’s about delivering that beautiful message of Christmas for people.” Armed with new videos, fresh production, a new backdrop and the Western art work of Kenneth Wyatt, Murphey’s Cowboy Christmas Tour 2014 makes a stop at the Greenville Municipal Auditorium, 2821 Washington Street in Greenville, Texas. The show, which is part of the Kenneth Threadgill Concert Series, is Dec. 2nd at 7:30 p.m. Tickets are $36-$56 and are available at www.showtimeatthegma.com. The genesis of Murphey’s Cowboy Christmas harks back to Anson, Texas in 1885. That was the date and place of the first Cowboys’ Christmas Ball, a festive celebration that found native New Yorker and newly arrived Anson resident Larry Chittenden so inspired by the dancing and merriment he witnessed that he penned a poem titled “The Cowboys’ Christmas Ball.” His six-stanza verse has been set to music and remains a traditional Western signpost of the holidays.

  • Personal Remembrances of 2008 He Year’S Biggest Stories Received Tonya Campos and Tatiana Their Due in the Opening Pages of Tthis Publication
    Better As A MemoryPersonal Remembrances Of 2008 he year’s biggest stories received Tonya Campos and Tatiana their due in the opening pages of Tthis publication. As in previous years, however, Country Aircheck has made a point of seeking and accepting the personal stories and remembrances that provide a different yet equally relevant perspective on the year that was. Enjoy. Tonya Campos KKGO/Los Angeles “When Compassion International approached me about going to Nicaragua and doing an on-air tie-in, I said yes in a split-second. We planned my trip to take place before our on-air promotion. Our goal was to get 300 children sponsored, which entails $32 a month, and ensures the child receives one hot meal a day and pays for school uniforms, pencils, paper, etc. It was the best thing I’ve ever done. It was a life-changing experience. I broke down at my first glimpse of poverty and they told me that was normal. It’s a shock if you’ve never seen it. “After a day of playing with about 150 children, this little girl came and tugged at my sleeve. She said, ‘I want you to have this,’ and handed me her purse. I had told her earlier how beautiful it was, but I didn’t want to take it from her. She told me to take it because she had another one. I lost it. She represented all those children who have nothing, and here she was giving me something to take home. It’s with me all the time as a reminder.

  • “Farewell Party” Volume: 60
    January—February, 2019 “Farewell Party” Volume: 60 Dear Friends - Thank you for helping me celebrate the 40th Anniversary of my most re- quested song, “Farewell Party.” I’ve told this story over the years but I first heard the song by Waylon Jennings who recorded it in a march time and I wanted to do it in my style. At a session at Jack Clements studio in Nash- ville, we had 15 minutes left and I suggested this song. None of the musi- cians knew it so I got down on one knee with a guitar and the musicians and background vocalists huddled around me. While I sang and played, they made their charts. Knowing we were short on time, I went to the re- cording booth and started to sing before we’d even decided on the fin- ish. When I hit the last note, everyone just went with it too. What you hear on the record was all done in one take, including the background vo- calists. No overdubs, no re-doing anything. The song went on to be a big hit for me, thanks to you! Gene and Mark Chesnutt are old friends, both from Texas. Here Mark is showing Gene one of his favorite guitars. Gene is an avid guitar collector himself. Cruisin’ The Caribbean - 2019 Always the jokester, Moe Bandy tells Moe and Springer Mountain Gene he signed Gene’s name to the dinner Farms’ “Chicken Man”, Gus Arren- check and added a very hefty tip! dale posed for this photo after dinner. Gene and Moe seated together during the autograph sessions is asking for trouble but for the moment, Gene is all smiles.

  • Gene Watson Fan Club Newsletter Hi Friends, in This Time of Sheltering at Home We Hope You Will Take a Moment to Sit Back and Enjoy Our Newsletter
    Mar-Apr 2020 Volume 67 Gene Watson Fan Club Newsletter Hi Friends, In this time of sheltering at home we hope you will take a moment to sit back and enjoy our newsletter. Most of the photos are from our January cruise since we didn't get to share them earlier. As you know we have re-scheduled March and April concerts as well as some in May. None of us knows when we'll be back to the normal work flow so for any concerts still showing in our May schedule, be sure to check at each venue as we get closer to the day. Be assured if the government allows us to get together, we will most certainly be there. Our concern is to keep you healthy and safe so we can all get to- gether and share the music for many more years to come. For the moment, I'm staying home and watching a lot of the old Westerns. I'm sure I've seen 90% of them already and some I've seen enough that I could quote all the lines but I still enjoy them and still watch. My favorites are Gunsmoke and The Virginian. Of course with so much down time lately, I've had time to check out many channels and some that I enjoy are the military and science channels and of course the Motor Trend channel. I've watched a whole lot of "Street Outlaws" about street drag racing and the Barrett Jackson show where they auction off cars. Just to rebuff any rumors, I have not learned French or studied calculus.
