There were approximately 200 people who came to take in the tribute show, which saw James and Big River play a number of classic Johnny Cash songs, with James going into the crowd at various points, including during A Boy Named Sue, where he got the crowd to help him sing parts of the song.

James and Big River have played a large number of fundraising events over the years, including a Make A Wish Foundation fundraiser, says James, who notes playing fundraisers are always fun. “It feels good to give back a little.

Overall Blechinger was very pleased with how the evening turned out saying she was really pleased. “I think everybody was happy with the band and I think it was a success.� Belchinger would like to thank all of the group members who worked hard to make the event a success, which included providing the appetizers for the intermission. “This is a very good group.�
