Country Gentlemen sought for Doo Dah Parade

The man in black keeps showing up at many of the same places around town that I do. No, he’s not Johnny Cash. No, no, he’s not the Grim Reaper. No and no again, he’s not some goth dude! He’s none other than Eagle, a true gentleman down to the boots and the hat. Eagle sent me an e-mail today, asking me if I would help spread the word for his group. After looking at the photo of me and Valerie at McGinty’s Gallery at the End of the World in Altadena that he sent, how can I resist?

 

Here’s the plea from Eagle:

 

We need more men volunteers who what to be in The Country Gentlemen group for the DooDah parade.  The group is 12 Country Gentlemen, we have 4 at this point, that would make a need for 8 more, but we would like to have a back up of 2.  So, that makes 10 needed.

Here are the qualifications.

1.  Must look in reasonably good shape and have a little rhythm.  Race and age is not a big factor, however we would prefer 30+
2.  Must have black regular cowboy boots and black slacks, not jeans.
3.  Must we willing to rehearse some evenings and sunday afternoon and every evening the Monday before the parade.
4.  Must be willing to help with the parade staging and arrive at 8:00 AM parade day.
5.  Pay $30 for the custom embroidered CG shirt.  The fifty ($50) dollar CG Wilton hat will be theirs to keep, if they show up parade day.
6.  Most important… must be a “gentleman.”

I realize that we are coming down to the wire, but I have a choreographer who is working on the routine that will not be too difficult.  The banner for the group arrived today and it looks great!  I have a preliminary website set up at:  TheCountryGentlemen.org  

Wishing you all the best and a GREAT DooDah day.

Robert “Eagle” Linker
