One hour before the concert starts, Stewart is on stage
telling about our product to a full house! This year in Franklinton, LA,
marks the 6th year that Stewart has promoted a concert in his hometown of
Franklinton, Louisiana. The concert is held every year in the first of March
at Bowling Green School, where Stewart graduated.

Family gets put to work. To the left is Stewart's mom,
Janice, and to the right is his cousin LaShay. They greeted people at the
door and sold tickets.

We were pleasantly surprised when we arrived, the school
cheerleaders had painted these two signs and hung them on the stage. The
top one reads "BGS Welcomes the Dixie Echoes", and the bottom sign reads,
"Welcome Home Stewart Class of '98".

Alan Lawson Barber of Bogalusa, LA, attended his first
Dixie Echoes concert on March 10, 2007, which also happened to be his 11th
birthday.

This was our first time to meet Alan, but we were told
that he wasn't shy, and was a good singer. The audience loved him!

crowd!

Another crowd shot, the floor and bleachers were
full.

this very enthusiastic crowd! |
