Hey Taylor, King Proehl here

Hey Taylor, not sure if you would remember me from the Gray Charles days, but I used to post to that site. I went by KingProehl on that and other related message boards.

New Jersey Show?

Hi Taylor....any shows planned for the NJ or NY area this year? I'm a fan and my 82 yr old Mom's last wish in this world is to see you in person, but it's difficult for her to travel very far.
