To whom it may concern;

This letter is to both introduce and highly recommend the unique musical group , The Lone Star Ramblers. I have personally and professionally known these guys for over three years, and they are not only a super- talented group of players, but super nice folks as well.

As manager of entertainment for a musical theme park, we have taken full use of their specialized instrumentation, and I can say without hesitation that they have proven effective in every entertainment venue we have placed them. The Ramblers, without exception, have successfully fronted our celebrity concerts as an opening act, performed complete self- contained stage shows, worked the streets as roving musicians and atmosphere entertainers, and presented their act for numerous park-wide special events. This coming season we will even incorporate the Ramblers as part of an in-house band used in a summer closing music show.

I personally feel the group's success is due to several factors, but foremost I believe is the fact that they are all seasoned music veterans who demonstrate professional abilities, attitudes, and flexibility at all times. The Ramblers show up to do their job and then they proceed to "do it", whatever extra that may require.

Furthermore, as a former owner of an entertainment and events production company, I can also highly recommend the Ramblers (as well as their other LSBK counter-parts and alter-egos) for any kind of special events entertainment. Whether it be corporate product presentations, trade shows, industrial theatre, theme parties, even parades, they are the answer to any meeting-planner's wildest dream. The Ramblers can do it all in a self-contained group, providing walk-in, background, dinner, dance, and specialized music in a variety of styles. Their musical versatility coupled with their strict sense of professionalism and sincere sense of humor creates a very impressive musical package.

We are always pleased to include the Lone Star Ramblers as part of our overall entertainment program here at Dollywood.

Warmest regards
Michael Padgett
