GDG- Re: Muster name

[Biggsk at aol.com]

Folks,
 
Being in the music business since 1971 (and I still am), a former  music 
journalist and once proud owner of a record collection of some 18,000  titles (and 
a smashed Pete Townshend guitar!!!!),  let me state that "Not  Fade Away" was 
a Buddy Holly song written around Bo Diddley rhythms. The boy  from Lubbock 
was trying to get his groove on.
 
The Rolling Stones redid it on one of their early albums (and a grand  
version it was too - great harmonica breaks by Jagger).  The Dead also  covered it, 
but not as well.
 
I like the "Stars and Bearss" title for the muster - and I wish I could  
attend.  
 
If the GDG would ever like to do a Western Theater muster please let me  
know, especially if it centers on the war in Tennessee.  I can handle the  Cairo, 
IL to Clarksville portion (the Belmont and Henry-Donelson campaigns) and  get 
the Nashville, Stones River, Franklin-Spring Hill and Tullahoma portions  
covered easily by friends.  It would be easy to do and center around  staying in 
Nashville for most of the tours.
 
I am also capable of doing the Atlanta Campaign from Dalton to  Jonesboro.
 
I am doing a US Army Staff Ride at Donelson next week in fact.
 
Greg "Mr. Rock & Roll" Biggs
