On Tuesday 12 August 2025, Gene Watson expressed his gratitude to Larry Booth and Tony Booth, two brothers, who were former members of his acclaimed Farewell Party Band.

‘Here’s a 1981 photo with me and Larry Booth onstage.
This was at the Ramp Festival near Knoxville, Tennessee.
You may know Larry‘s brother, the great singer Tony Booth, who also was in my band at one point.
Larry was not only in the band, but also my manager for awhile.
I was grateful to work with Larry and Tony – two talented brothers’
