Hi John from Boston; Thanks for stopping by. Which songs did you like the best. I am always interested in what kind of songs to write. I am working on a whole bunch of new songs and trying to figure out which ones to finish first. Thanks for the kind words in the guestbook. Tommy

Hi everyone; Just thought I'd drop a line to let you all know that I'm still around and fill you in on whats happening. This summer has been quite a busy one. Not much happening as far as live dates are concerned, but I've been real busy with the studio. I kind of out grew the old studio, and had to completely revamp it to add more space and make it a little more comfortable and efficient. We have about 5 different projects going on and I don't have the time to get any of them done, until I finish remodeling. It should be up and running by Thanksgiving, and I am hoping to have a single out shortly after that. I met some more great musicians this summer, and are working out some schedules to have more options when bookings are available. I will keep you posted as things progress. Thanks for your patience. Tommy

Hieverybody; Just had to let you know about the great weekend we had at the Fishing Creek Campground. Did some fine pickin & grinnin with the summer residents there. What a great bunch of folks we met there. This is turning out to be a great summer considering we didn't do any bookings this year because of some health issues.The good Lord has really shined his light on us, and opened up a lot of interesting venues. We have some other interesting news happening as I speak, which I will be posting shortly. God Bless you all. Tommy

wow!!! What a wonderful day we had at the Hidlay Church festival. What a turnout. They were calling for showers, and sure enough it rained, but the people turned out anyway, and they stayed right through the rain. I haven't seen anything like that in quite some time. I do believe a good time was had by all. I know I had a great time. I'm already looking forward to next year. Thank You fans for your wonderful support. Tommy

Hi again; Just thought I'd let you know we are really looking forward to having a real good time tomorrow at the church festival. If it doesn't rain on our show, that is. We will be having the whole group there. Jack Michael on bass, Dave Reedy on drums, Brett Mowrey on vocals and flattop, Mark Trapane on bass and lead guitar and vocals, Ray Kinley on pedal steel guitar, and Susie Good with those outstanding vocals. Eddie, out fiddle player isn't so sure if he'll make it, he tore a shoulder ligament and is hurtin pretty much right now. He is to be operated on in aug. to have it repaired. And of course Tommy will be there, although with all the talent in this group, I could stay home and no one would notice. Come on down and give a listen. If you like what you hear, we are finally ready to start doing shows and dances again, so let your favorite places of entertainment know we are back on the road.Thank You and God Bless You. Tommy

Hi everybody; Just made some changes to the computer room and finally got back on line, just in time to let you know that we will be entertaining at the Hidlay Church festival this coming sunday from 5pm to 8pm. Hope to see you there.

Wow!!! What an event. They came from California, Tennessee, Virginia, Maryland, Nevada, and New York, to little ole BerVaughn Park, in Berwick. It was truly an event to remember. Some cousins I haven't seen in 30 years or more. I will be adding pictures as soon as I can get them all downloaded. My mother was a Kershner, and this was the Kershner Reunion. And I think the fireworks all over the country were the best ever. We saw the fireworks from Macy's in New York, and we saw the fireworks from Boston Harbor, and both were great extravaganza's. We also saw the display our next door neighbors put on in Nescopeck Twp. and they were fantastic. Happy 4th of July everybody.

Hi' Its me again. I would like to take this opportunity to thank William A Fields and the entire Pa. Racing Outreach community for giving us the opportunity to share this experience with them. You can find out more about this organization at www.go2pro.org. Thank you, Tommy

Hi; Today is the day. I know I should have had this info listed here earlier, but I ended up in the hospital, and didn't have access to a computer. I am back out and ready to go for show time this evening at 7:30 pm. Everything is in place and ready to go. We even have one of this areas best sound co's doing the sound for the show. The Sound Connection is our choice for this show with Mark Trapane in charge of the sound decisions, and Tino Trapane at the controls. We will have the whole band there with the exception of Ray Kinley on Steel Guitar. Unfortunately Ray already had some commitments and won't be able to make it. We are looking forward to seeing many of our fans there, plus the opportunity to find some new ones. God Bless you all and have a safe trip to the Pocono 500. Tommy

I want to appologize to you for the fact that I had to turn off the guestbook, because unscrupulous drug companies were taking over the entire section to get free advertising for their drugs. I am sick of seeing all the drug ads on tv, and now I cannot run my website without them trying to monopolize it. Thank you for your understanding. Hopefully in the future, I will be able to utilize it again. Thanks again, Tommy.

Hi fans; Its finally official, we will be performing near gate #4 at the pocono 500 on sat. june 7, 7:30 pm til ? We sure do hope to see some of you there. This is a great experience and a chance to play our music for the Nascar crowd. We will be doing a mix of country, bluegrass, and gospel, and several of my songs from the cd's you see here on the web site. I sure am excited and I hope you tell all your friends so we can meet you there. We will be hosted by Pa. Racing outreach. You can find out more about them by checking their website at www.go2pro.org. I will let you know more in the next couple of days, as I get more information on the exact location or the stage. See you soon, Tommy

Hi everyone; I just got a nice note from Randy Hess, remember I told you he used to play pedal steel guitar in the country travelers. Well he just sent me a link to a great website in Nashville where you can hear some of the songs from his girlfriends new cd. Randy is producing the cd and playing a lot of music on the cd. The link is www.digitalrodeo.com/danimorrill. Check it out and don't forget to check out another old friend of mine, Webb Kline at www.digitalrodeo.com/WebbKline. Check them both out. You won't be sorry. More later. Tommy

Hi again; Just wanted to say thanks again for all you folks coming to see what is going on in our lives. At the moment we are busy as can be still trying to get an album done so we can get some new music on here. But the big news I'd like to share with you is about some of the guys I used to work with. Two of my really great friends are now living in or near Nashville, Tenn. Randy Hess played pedal steel guitar in my band several years ago, then went on to nashville where he eventually worked for Tom T. Hall, then for Trace Adkins, and now is on tour with Kelly Pickler, who is opening for Brad Paisley on his tour. Another really great friend of mine just recently moved to Nashville, and is doing fine in the area and has a really neat spot on the internet at http;//digitalrodeo.com/Webb Kline. Check out his music for yourself. He is one of the most outstanding piano players I have ever had the chance to work with, and he plays a real mean dobro too. Check him out. See you again soon. Tommy

I just asked some of you to let a message on the quest page, and someone did, plus, we're getting some real nice emails. Thank you so much. I know there is a lot I could do to make this place a little more cozy, so how about some ideas. I sure could use some help. And hey, we're also on itunes, where you can download just the songs you want, instead of the whole album. Remember, the profits from "this road I travel" are going to a very good cause, so please help me out. Thanks again. Tommy.

Hi; Thanks again for stopping by. We have just passed the 15 visits per hour, and no one is leaving any messages in the guestbook. I am asking you, please leave a short message to let us know what you think of our website. We want to know if you like it or if you don't. Please let us know so we can make the changes needed to make it more interesting. I am sorry I haven't been doing much here lately, but its been one thing after another keeping me busy other places. We have some interesting things coming up in the near future if everything goes as planned. Please hang in there with us, and you know, you can buy the cd's at cd baby. The money is going to a very worthwhile charity. Thank You. Tommy

Hi fans. This has been a very bad winter for me. First, I got sick the week before christmas, then my wife got sick, then I got sick again. It seemed like we were just passing it back and forth. Finally we were starting to feel better, but then on the day before valentines day, my mom got sick with pnemonia, and we had to take her to the hospital. She was in the hospital for a week, and then in the nursing home recuperating fot another month. We just brought her home this past weekend, and we are trying to get back into a groove. I want to thank everyone of our fans for sticking by us. It sure is great to hear from you on the website. We are still hoping to get into the studio to finish up the projects we have started. I will keep you posted as things develope. I am going to try to get some of the songs on the website so you can hear what we are doing. Thanks again for hanging in there with us. I don''t think we will be doing any carnivals or fairs, as they do all their booking in the winter months. Again, we will keep you posted if anything developes. Tommy

I just posted a picture of Dave Slusser holding my new strat style guitar. Dave is a meticulous guitar craftsman, who built this fine guitar to my specs. It is a fine instrument that you will hear on my new cd's which I haven't quite finished yet. If there is anyone out there who is interested in buying a quality guitar, and not breaking the bank, this is the guy you want to see. If you want more information, just email this website. We would be glad to put you in touch.
