PHIL VASSAR-The crowd goes WILD!

PHIL VASSAR! Our first concert at the beautifully, renovated Liberty Theater. Phil and his crew were so much fun to hang out with and were crowd PLEASERS! People went nuts and it was a great time! They all enjoyed out community and raved about it's beauty!

I interviewed Phil a few days before the show and then right before he went on stage, he is fun, personable AND called me ‘honey’! (Ya gotta love that!!) After the show we all hung out on the bus and I had the, very cool opportunity to see his unreleased video for “ Good Ole Days”. Jerry was one of the drivers that night for the band, so we both had a great time with all of them.

I have to be honest though, I hadn’t realized just how MANY songs Phil had written for other artists that became hits, then his album ‘Shaken Not Stirred’ had taken off the way it did. It’s one of my favorite albums to date. You won’t want to miss him when he comes back in Nov of ’06.

“ On Greatest Hits, Volume 1, Phil reconnects with those songs that first made a name for him in Music City, USA. You know the songs—chart-topping hits made famous by the likes of Tim McGraw, Alan Jackson, Jo Dee Messina and others. But for the first time on CD, you can hear them the way they were originally written and conceived…in the voice that first gave them life and breath. Phil sees his new album as a chance for him to do what some of his favorite composers have done. “I always like to hear the songwriter do the song. Nobody does a song better than the songwriter. Especially if they lived it and breathed it. That’s where the best songs come from.” Call it “Phil Vassar: In His Own Words”—in a more complete volume and form than he’s ever created before.” www.philvassar.com
