This wonderful photo speaks volumes, check out their website link above.
We've got tickets for a variety of performances so it will be total immersion for three days. I'm excited to see Dave Stamey and Paul Zarzyski. I was introduced to their talents by my friend Trisha who was a devoted fan of Cowboy Poetry, Western Music and the annual gathering in Elko. They are truly gifted observers and storytellers.
Dave Stamey - Singer/Songwriter
Paul Zarzyski - Cowboy Poet Extraordinaire
