Meanwhile, producer Don Cook had been pitching Brooks to DuBois, who was hot to sign a duo to Arista Nashville. "That was when Allen Butler and Mike Dun- gan were at the label with me, and all three of us were working on it, but we couldn't find [a duo] that really excited us," says DuBois. A Brooks/Tim Mensey duo deal never worked out, so Hendricks suggested Dunn. "I thought that was a great idea, so I took Kix and Ronnie out to lunch and introduced them," says DuBois. "I said, 'You may think I'm crazy, but you guys need to hang out and write together and see what hap- pens.'

and entertaining, from co- headlining treks with Reba McEntire to their multi -act Neon Circus & Wild West Show -now in its third incarnation-with more than 100 shows in the books. With top -rank support that has included Montgomery Gentry, Toby Keith, Keith Urban, Trick Pony, Dwight Yoakam and Rascal Flatts, the Neon Circus amphitheater extravaganza has turned into the country party that kicks off the summer.

AT HOME ONSTAGE Brooks says Neon Circus is about providing a contin- uous good time for fans. "There's a lot of stuff for peo- ple to do and see, and then they take it in between acts and see jugglers and [we] keep people occupied so This year's Neon Circus, from left: Rascal Flatts (lay Demarcus, Gary Lenox, Joe Don Rooney), Aaron Lines, Kix Brooks, Ronnie Dunn, Jeff Bates, there's no down time," he says. "You can come and Brad Paisley and Cledus T. Judd bring your girlfriend or kids or whoever, and you know from the time you get there that there will be some- thing to do." Adds Dunn of the tour's sponsor and backstage camaraderie, "There's no risk when you have Coors on board. Free beer." Owning a stage presence honed in beer joints and dancehalls, Kix and Ronnie are as at home onstage as in the studio. "They're one of the best live acts I've ever seen," says Brian O'Connell, who oversees country music for Clear Channel Entertainment (CCE), produc- ers of Neon Circus. "With the amazing vocal talents of Ronnie and the wildness of Kix, it's like controlled chaos. They feed off the crowd. I've never seen them have an off night." They've seldom had an off night at the box office 5 either.

Such touring success is no accident. "They're always May the road ahead be filled with continued success. very conscious of the package, the sound and lights, the gags, the music, the whole thing," says Shipp. "Ronnie and Kix, their management, the crew, the band - they're all guys that know how to do their jobs and enjoy doing it." According to Dunn, "It's a blast. Going out there and doing those shows is fun." Kix and Ronnie are very involved in what ends up onstage. "They have a vision of what they want to project, and it's my job to put it together," says Spalding. Touring, recording and songwriting have combined to create a career of impressive consistency. "It all comes back to their work ethic," says Spalding. "They were journeymen. They had years of playing in the clubs and surviving in this business without record deals or hits."

DOWN THE RED DIRT ROAD As for what the future will bring to this dynamic act, it is a safe bet it won't be boring. Whether it's doing CMT's Crossroads with ZZ Top or coheadlining the Jackson County Fair in Jackson, Mich., in August with Sheryl Crow, Brooks & Dunn continue to push the envelope. "Kix and Ronnie are always open to doing lots of things," says Spalding. "I wish I knew where it was going from here. Every year, we're trying to create something better, not necessarily bigger." In terms of record- making, Titley has a pet project for the duo he'd like to see come to fruition. "I come out of the honky -tonk world, and a secret part of me wants to see them do a real honky -tonk record," he says. The road is always part of the plan. Spalding says the B &D camp already has 80% of 2004's touring booked. HEMPHILL BROTHERS COACH COMPANY It won't be another Neon Circus outing, but rather the Red Dirt Road tour. "We're not going to do away with Neon Circus," he stresses. "We've just done it three Proud provider of luxury entertainer coaches for the years in a row. It's time to give it a rest and then bring it Brooks & Dunn Neon Circus and Wild West Show. back in a couple of years. This year, Neon Circus travels 12 trucks and 123 people; it has been very profitable, but it's so big, we end up having to play the same places every year." Titley takes a similar view.

MUSICALYOUTH: For slightly more than 46 years, Brenda Lee has held the record as the youngest female singer to chart on Hot Country Singles & Tracks. Born Brenda Mae Tarpley on Dec. 11, 1944, Lee was 12 years, three months, and four weeks old when she made her first appearance on the survey with "One Step at a Time." That single entered the chart the week of April 6, 1957, and peaked at No. 15. Peer Group Lee loses her crown this issue to an artist who is only slightly younger. Ashley Gearing debuts at No. A celebration for Peermusic's 75th anniversary was held 57 with "Can You Hear Me When I Talk to You" (Lyric recently at the Peer mansion in Los Angeles for more than 200 guests, including Peermusic writers, music execs, and Peermusic staffers.
