Hall: Who’s Gonna Feed Them Hogs. i traveled and performed with Tom T.’s son, Dean Hall, back in the late ‘90s. He was responsible for the beginnings of NASCAR’s infield shows. Winston, (RJ Reynolds) was looking for some kickass entertainment to go with their infield program and their representatives were in Nashville on other business. They got into a cab and asked the driver where they could find the best entertainment in town on a Tuesday night. The cabbie took them to a little place called Rivalries, a joint built around a caboose on Murfreesboro Road in south Nashville. Dean, Tom T.’s son was the Tuesday night show and the place was always packed! He’d get me up to do a number or two almost every week and my guitar playin’ partner, Mark Watson often sat in, among a long list of extremely talented players! Long story short, they were blown away by Dean’s performance and stage presence and within days Winston had their infield show!! Schoolmarm and I traveled often with the show and on every occasion when we were present, Dean would invite me up to do a song or two and he would plug Milkbone, my band. I was there for the last race that Winston was the major sponsor for. It was in Atlanta at season’s end and I actually performed the final number from the “Winston Stage”. It was Statesboro Blues!! Dean Hall is a phenomenal guitarist and song writer!! He’s also a good friend! Tom T. is perhaps the greatest story teller in country music!!!

I've heard of the band and Hatfield, my son, sometimes listens to the more modern stuff so I've likely heard it before!!
