Don’s in the U.K. this weekend, hosting the traditional Keel-Felder Golf Classic. As in the previous two years, the DeVere Carden Park Hotel and Golf Resort near Chester will stage the charity event on Sunday, September 6. The first foursomes hit the fairways early and don’t stop swinging until shortly before the cocktails, gala dinner, auction and entertainment top off the day’s festivities.

commenting closedEarlier this month, the Montreux Jazz Festival (July 13-18) announced its 2009 program. “Jazz Festival” is somewhat of a misnomer. This year’s “jazz” includes the likes of the Black Eyed Peas, Alice Cooper and Sammy Hagar (!), Donna Summer, Derek Trucks, Lily Allen, Jeff Beck, Seal, Steely Dan, Steve Winwood and B.B. King. (Rest assured, the jazz lineup is phenomenal – the list is l-o-o-o-n-g.) Interesting addition this year: Creed Taylor and the CTI All Star Band – Creed Taylor was Don’s first record producer back in 1969* . . . . . . Our “house” steel guitarist, Al Perkins, has announced he will be returning to Europe this summer with selected dates in the U.K. and eventually on the continent. Al will also be appearing this weekend at the Stagecoach Country Music Festival in Indio, CA (4/26), where Poco (Messina, Furay, Young, Cotton, Schmit) and Pure Prairie League are also on the bill. . . . . . . What are you waiting for? European Crosby, Stills and Nash fans take heed: four of their nine European shows are already sold out: Glastonbury Festival (Neil Young, Bruce Springsteen) on 6/27, London (Royal Albert Hall) on 7/1, Paris on 7/4 and Amsterdam on 7/6. We’re looking forward to the open air show in Bonn on July 3rd. Fans in the U.S. have a selection of domestic dates from early June on. (You know, if Al Perkins and Stephen Stills stumble upon each other in Europe, you’ve got a third of a Manassas reunion!) Posted September 9, 2008 by Felderfans
commenting closed Don at the club house Once again, Don was gracious enough to allow himself to be filmed for golf-educational purposes. Joe B’s annual video has been edited into bite-sized pieces and posted over on the 2008 Classic page. We’ve also added a few images from the gala dinner. Posted August 28, 2008 by Felderfans

Spectators are welcome to come out and enjoy the golf, chat with the participants and perhaps get an autograph or two from a favorite football player or television personality. Greg Morton is looking forward to returning with his band to support Don musically and if last year’s show was any indication, there should be some great post-game entertainment in store for the sponsors and their guests. Check the Classics page over the next few days for visitor information and once things get underway, live quotes and visuals direct from the venue! |

We’ve put together a slideshow from the golf and gala.
Thanks to Joe B. for contributing several images.
