Hey All!
I went to Lexington KY and worked an awesome PBR event for Lazy E. I got to work with my good friend and bullfighter Matt Baldwin who just had had baby boy days before the event. Well actually his wife Kristy had the baby! So congrats to them and thanks for the picture of little Eli for my refrigerator. I then loaded the trailer and headed for sunny southern California to work a PRCA Rodeo in Riverside. It had been raining in Montana and cold so it was nice to get a little sunshine! I had a good time and met and worked with Al Parsons from Washington who is a talented announcer and really nice guy. Now I definitely haven't had a smart run this year with diesel being so high and this is no exception. I went from riverside to Richmond, VA to do a PBR for the one and only Jerome Robinson. Now if you don't know Jerome, you are truly missing out. He is a true professional and probably the best production guy in the bull riding industry. I got to work there with Matt West announcing and Curt Blake doing sound and we brought our little team back together from our winter PBR's. Over the fourth I went to Kayenta, AZ and did a rodeo for the great folks on the Navajo Nation. Steven and JJ Young are two of the nicest guys I've ever met and I'm not sure I've ever been treated so good at a rodeo. The crowds were great, the weather fairly mild and the scenery was terrific! I worked with my long time friend Ben Benevides there. Ben does sound and also has a video board that really adds something extra to an event! Well that brings me to the PBR in Bismarck this past weekend for Chad and Sarah Berger. This is hands down the best bull riding in the country, A guy nearly had to turn in back to back 90 plus rides to get a piece of this thing! The PBR fans in Bismarck are super awesome and Id like to give a special shout out to the crazy women from Fergus Falls! I worked there with my really good friend Darrel Diefenbach who fought bulls alongside Frank Newsome and Nevada Miller.
The boys did a great job as usual! Brandon Bates and my buddy Rob Smets announced and w had a great time! This week is the Bozeman PBR. This is a super awesome event and if you're around, it's not to be missed! Flint comes down and entertains the fans here. I get a night off to just hang out and I have a great time. Well it's off for the second half of my summer of PBR and PRCA events. Drop me a line I' love to hear from you, and as always be good!
