BUCK JONES BENEFIT
Items Available at Snappy Auctions Beginning Sunday, May 6
Items Available at Snappy Auctions Beginning Sunday, May 6
----------
Up and coming country star Buck Jones was a talented, warm hearted, generous soul who was tragically killed by a drunk driver on March 17, 2007 on a Texas highway.
Buck left behind a beautiful wife, Amy-Beth Jones and a 7 month old son, Walker Dylan as well as a stunned Country music community. Roger, Leesa & I were fortunate to have known Buck, and played several dates with him at Billy Block's Western Beat Houston and on the road in Texas.
Guitars, posters and memorabilia signed from the Buck Jones Memorial Concert by Jon Bon Jovi, Ritchie Sambora, Big & Rich and Jewel as well as item donated by Toby Keith, Brooks and Dunn, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Kelly Clarkson, Leann Rimes, Terri Clark, Brad Paisley and Billy Currington become available on Snappy Auctions eBay site this Sunday, May 6 through Sunday, May 13. The original Rachel Kice painting from that night is also a prized item up for bid.
The Buck Jones Memorial concert raised nearly 50 thousand dollars and these valuable items should take that figure even higher. Another benefit concert is planned in Austin, Texas on May 21, 2007 at Antones and here in Nashville at the Exit/In on Wed. May 23, 2007 at 6pm starring Grammy winner Jim Lauderdale, Nashville Stars’ Chris Young, Jason Meadows & Lance Miller, Buck’s co-producers Walt Wilkins & Tim Lorsch, the Big Happy, Davis Raines, Jubal Lee Young and Buck’s band members Jon Byrd, Michael Jeffers, Mike Daly, Milan Miller and Billy Block. All proceeds go to The Buck Jones Memorial Fund at 5/3 Bank. Visit www.buckjonesmusic.com <http://www.buckjonesmusic.com> for more details.

NEW SONG
Myspace Page
----------
A new song is not unusual around here, but this one was recorded and getting
reaction from around the world in just a couple days. I've put it up at www.myspace.com/texasbluesguy for now, while we edit, overdub and mix. It appears that we'll make a disc of various versions, including ones from Too Tall & The guilty Line-Up, Absynthesis, Chango jackson and more. Cool!
We're working on a lot of music projects right now, and I love it! We're mostly doing stuff with the core New Jack Hippies band this time. If you haven't heard any of the other new stuff, check our 'Another Knight In America!' on one of our other myspace pages. It rocks pretty good!
We have over twenty CDs available for sale online, one song at a time, so check us out at i-Tunes, Rhapsody, Besy Buy, EMusic, SNOCAP, Wal-Mart or wherever you shop for music. Search your favorite for Guy Schwartz, New Jack Hippies, BluesGuy, SOUTH BY DUE EAST or The Homegrown
Collective. Thanks!
