The American Society of Composers, Authors, and Publishers. It was free. I joined. It’s official. I’m not sure how I feel about this step, this development, this whatever, but it was recommended, so I joined. Easily could have been BMI, Broadcast Music, Inc. Didn’t much matter to me. One is as good as the other, […]

(flyer by my daughter Kenlee using Canva) Once again, one of my kids does what I can’t. Oh, well, yeah, I can make a flyer. Don’t get me wrong. Give me a piece of white paper, some markers, tape, scissors, glue, etc., and I can whip one up lickety-split. Old school! I could even work […]
I shared a little bit about Rough Cut a few days ago. I thought I ought to share the same about my other band, the Bluegrass band I’ve been in for six years now. Kenneth Newell and I started The Caney Creek Gang in 2019. It was getting harder and harder to find bands to […]
(my son Tanner’s work) How about that?! The official Notes of Blue logo! By Tanner Autry! It’s a good thing all my kids are good with technology. I’d be severely lacking if they weren’t. I love ’em and appreciate all their assistance. So this logo will appear on everything: this website, the YouTube page, and […]
Most folks don’t even know that I’m in another band. It’s not that I have hidden it (why would I?); it’s just that we’ve only played one gig. That was last September, and we’re so busy we haven’t played or practiced since. But yeah, we’re called Rough Cut, and we play a mixture of Country, […]
The heat was on last night at The Rosine Barn Jamboree’s 33rd season opener. In more ways than one! The air outside was a bit nippy, so we had the furnace running. The biggest source of heat was coming from the stage, though. Dennis Cook, Chairman of The Rosine Association (we lease the barn and […]
The road to Jerusalem Ridge As you can see in the photo, the road leading to the Monroe Homeplace was almost washed away in the flood last week. It’s the worst I have seen it on that particular section between the railroad and Hwy 62. I had actually fixed that same erosion about a month […]
And there it was. I had all but given up finding any today. It seemed like I had walked at least a mile with no luck whatsoever; in fact, I was on my way back to the truck, plumb worn out and dejected. And there it was. In a place I wasn’t expecting, there, a […]
For a while the blog might look weird or off because the website is being built out. Stay tuned as the website is soon going to look like it should. Thank you for your patrience.
Rain, rain, go away! Come again another day! Wouldn’t you know it! All this bad weather forced us to postpone tonight’s opening of The Rosine Barn Jamboree’s 33rd season. That means we’ll have to reschedule the Bill Burden Tribute, probably until some time in June. When we have a new date, I’ll share it here […]
