On Monday 17 June 2024, Gene Watson was full of praise and admiration for the members of his highly acclaimed Farewell Party Band.
‘When you’re on the road, as we are, so many days in a 45-foot bus, you better hope you can all get along.
I’m proud to say my Farewell Party Band is not only some of the very best musicians you’ll ever hear, but each one is a very nice man – one that you’d be proud for your Mama to meet.
The minute they board the bus to leave, the jokes start flying.
I have to be on my toes around these characters, because I just never know what sort of funny story they’ll come up with, but it does make it easy on long trips that we all appreciate each other.
Along with my band members, we also have our excellent driver, Peanut.
He’s a whole other type of nut too, but we think we’ve got the best driver around.
I feel extremely lucky to have this great team!
Come see us on the road and you can appreciate this band’s talent onstage.
They’re the best!’
