OFFICIAL RELEASE CELEBRATION FOR "SATURDAY NIGHT"
RKC performs a duet with Brenda, kicking off his first set.
RKC is backed up by fellow musician on bass guitar, BOB "SMOKEY" MOORE from the Bristol, TN area. Smokey and his wife, Bernice, drove in to attend RKC's Official "Saturday Night" Release Celebration held on January 7, 2010 at Moose Lodge 715 in Lynchburg, VA.
Bill and Betty White (Classic Country Karaoke) opened the evening with great country music from the past. They did a fantastic job keeping the music going non-stop while RKC managed to grab breaks between his sets.
RKC and Smokey are joined by local musician, Billy "Blue Eyes" Taylor on harmonica.
RKC and Smokey entertain the crowd that stayed to the very end. It was a great show. Everything ran smoothly without any technical problems. RKC wants to thank everyone who attended, braving the threat of snow, and to Greg Kirby of Off The Cuff for his assistance with RKC's PA system.
