Congratulations to Albert Cummings......

Michael,

Albert is not concerned about the "Big Time". When I told him in Chicago that I thought I took a lot of good photos of him, do you know what he said? He said, "Roy, I don't give a sh*t about photos or websites. I'm only here because I care about the music."

When he put Jacque, Ken and I in charge of his CD sales for the night, he set down the case, told us to sell what we could and just put the money in the envelope, that he would be back sometime after the show. Several times after he was done and having a few beers with us, I told him to put the money away. He really didn't care because he had fun and put on a great show. I guess he figured old Wisconsin farmers are honest people.

Jacque, Ken and I still break out laughing every time we think or talk about that show, what a fabulous time we had. A more appropriate song that describes Albert is one that he wrote. It's called, "Tell It Like It Is", and with Albert that's what you'll get every time.

You are wise in your ways G Dawg, wink wink.

Albert is in the process of possibly forming his own Street Team. He contacted me and I'm currently working with a long time friend and supporter of his. It's just grass roots so far, but if and when there is a site to register at, I will post it here for people who are interested.

I'm sad to report an e-mail I got from Albert's bass player Dan. Last Monday his Dad was delivering the Eulogy at his sister's funeral and dropped dead. He's taking time off to be with his Mom and asked for warm thoughts and prayers. I know he'll get lots from here.    Cathy

edit:(Thought I should make it clear it was Dan's aunt's funeral)
