After R.L.'s funeral, a benefit show was planned for Alice Mae at the Two Sticks in Holly Springs. I had high expectations. We did hear from Cedric and Kenny; Duane and David. But between my equipment issues and general Mississippi chaos, the evening didn't turn out to be much. The people I wanted to hear played just a few songs. Lots of local players joined and eventually took over the show. Anyway, it was a chance for me to give some money to Alice Mae.
On another night, I was at Otha Turner's and Alice Mae walked by. I told her "you must be very proud of your family". She smiled and said "oh yes".
Here's some audio.
