OMG! I just watched Crossroads on CMT with Keith Urban and John Fogerty. I look at the other players and who is that playing guitar....Billy Burnette! If you get a chance (believe me, they rerun stuff into the ground), watch it!! :D

Thanks for the heads up. Crossroads is one of my favorite shows to watch on CMT. Keith Urban :thumbsup: , John Fogerty :thumbsup: I will be looking for Billy, but not necessarily tuning in to watch him. ;)

Can you believe I just recently bought BB's "Are You With Me Baby" off ebay! Dirt cheap too! :]

Fogerty did a "Live by Request" on A&E not too long ago and BB was with him then, too. I found myself watching it because of Billy. I really like JF but he wasn't the one I was watching. JF introduced the band at the end and talked about what a great songwriter BB is. :cool:

Yep, he sure was. The only musician to NOT get any "face time" during the episode.

I was watching the program Saturday night, and I looked at everyone in the room, and I was like "that guy was in Fleetwood Mac!" Of course, I had to explain the whole "it was after Lindsey" thing. I was a great show. I hope everyone will catch it when it is on again. :)

More of why I don't think Billy got a fair shake in Fleetwood Mac. (Although, maybe he needed to be more assertive with his material the way Lindsey was when he joined Fleetwood Mac.)

I thought that was Billy Burnette, But after watching it again on DVD and slowing it down it indeed was Billy boy...Good call Christy (Ya KU fan!!)

2 and a half weeks!! I'm not excited...no, not me, nuh uh. :laugh:

Also, I went back to look at the credits, just to make 100% sure and they billed him under John Fogerty's band as....Bill Burnett...oookay. :confused: Is that what he's using/spelling it as these days or did they screw it up? I wouldn't be surprised. :rolleyes:

What a great show, and especially Keith doing "You'll Think Of Me". :thumbsup: I was wearing goosebumps and my eyes got all watery and ****. :laugh:

So that was George lurking to the right of the drummer, waaaaaaaaaaaay in the back. Old Billy Beau was almost taking center stage.
