How to schmooze good (and sell books at the same time): Spring 2019 installment


Recommended Posts

Images from recent book signings I did at the Wiregrass Bluesfest 26-27 APR in Dothan, Alabama to promote the Atlanta Rhythm Section book. Did two radio appearances and a television appearance in advance. IDs:
 
1. Gil Anthony (dressed like the proprietor of a condemned Ferris Wheel)--director of the Wiregrass Blues Society, Sherry and Mike McCarty. Mike is the award-winning graphic artist who did the covers for the classic  ARS albums (and others); he contributed images and recollections to the book and is shown with the band on p. 108.
 
2. Gloria Buie, business manager for the ARS and Studio One. Widow of ARS producer/manager/co-songwriter Buddy Buie. She was responsible for the book's foreword. 
 
3.Saturday setup during concert
 
4. Local guitarist Frank Tanton; profiled in Vintage Guitar Magazine a few years ago.
 
Up next (as of now): Debut Atlanta area signing at the Atlanta Guitar Show in Duluth on 8-9 JUN. At least one radio appearance in advance is already scheduled.
