Again, and again, I received compliments from Fair patrons about their show. In addition to being fabulous performers, they were also very pleasant to work with. We definitely plan to have Alabama Blues Brothers come back to the Georgia National Fair again! Please feel free to contact me if I can provide any further information. Sincerely, Ashley D. Brown Entertainment Coordinator Georgia National Fair 478-987-3247 www.GeorgiaNationalFair.com United Cerebral Palsy of Huntsville and Tennessee Valley, Inc. hosted the 2007 National Respite Conference in Huntsville, AL Oct. 3-5. We were honored to have the Alabama Blues Brothers perform at an evening of fun at food at the U.S. Space and Rocket Center for our 300 guests from Huntsville to Guam. Our guests danced, clapped and sang along with the three-man band, and some nearly missed the bus back to the hotel to get pictures and autographs after the show! The Alabama Blues Brothers were a great addition to our conference making it what many guests said was the "best respite conference ever." UCP truly looks forward to working with the Alabama Blues Brothers for future events!
