thats good, although they had a good "fill in" person while he was healing up..  Trey is a great artist and cant be replaced..

We love The Grand Jubilee and see it every trip to Branson.  Sometimes on our summer trip Mike Patrick isn't there as he's taking time off to be with family.  It's good even without him, but I really like it much better when he's there too.

Grand Jubilee,  Comedy Jamboree, Down Home Country  (all 3 @ grand country, I have season passes)

I am not a 'New Country western" fan, I can tolerate OLD country, as the saying goes at Grand jubilee, we play country the way it was played before they messed it up!

Gotta show some love for Shoji. He's the reason I learned the fiddle in the first place

[sanddunerider]

Okie.. Shoji play a mean fiddle NO DOUBT... i would probaly like his show IF he hired and MC that i could understand and tell jokes...

[okiebluegrass]

I started watching Shoji at the old Starlite when Chisai Childs was running the place, when Johnny Long, and John and Paul Cody were there. It's been a while

okiebluegrass: Wow, yeah that was the late '80's. I heard they had a great show.

[okiebluegrass]

I think I saw my first show there in 1984. I forgot that Clint Wagner was there too (R.I.P) and of course Shoji. Can't believe that was almost 30 years ago.

Cliff Wagner was brother of Tony Wagner, who worked with me at the diving bell. I knew Cliff, and he was a wonderful, talented guy. Good head on his shoulders, and a heck of a performer. RIP Cliff.

LOL!!! I would think that after 30 years, Shoji would be able to speak fluent English....

[Junior]

I know his wife speaks "the color of money" she takes care of business affairs...he entertains and then he plays golf or fishes.

[sanddunerider]

junior, i have heard that also from many sources!!! .   

Actually sounds like Shoji has the right idea!

[KBCraig]

Anyone remember where Shoji started? I know we saw him at at least two or three different theaters before he went out on his own.

Plummer Family? Foggy River Boys?

[okiebluegrass]

Chisai Childs brought him from the Grapevine Opry in 1984 when she opened the Starlite Theater
