I was on a short tour with Hootie in 2001 and that isn't the same guy they had, at least not then. He wasn't that big. FFG said his name is Terry. I forget Hootie's guy's name, but it wasn't that. For some reason Sandy is the name I'm thinking.

EDIT: Hootie's guy's name is/was Buddy.

It's amazing! Freddy of Freddy and the Fishsticks uses the same security as Jimmy. Note the two men standing behind Freddy and Sonny Landreth. How odd?

I figured they were on Jimmy's payroll as opposed to subcontracted, but I certainly don't know...

Page 3 in this gallery, 2nd to last pic, shows the guys with Ralph, and wearing BN lanyards! Getting lanyards to them from the original order was a fun, proud moment, with thanks to Brian, head of Alpine Valley Security at the time. Especially because they were seen in many tour pics wearing them! (5 years ago - wow how time flies!)

(By the way, all of the pics in the http://www.ralphmacdonald.com photo galleries are pretty cool!)
