CMT DUKESFEST 2006 ADDS CMT DUKESFEST 2006 ADDS
HISTORY MAKING SHOW ON SATURDAY NIGHT NASHVILLE,
TN (April 5, 2006)
When thousands of Dukes of Hazzard fans gather for
CMT DukesFest 2006 in Nashville, they will be
treated to something unprecedented in "Hazzard"
history. On Saturday evening, June 3rd, the entire
Dukes cast will perform together onstage for the
first time.
"We'll feature John Schneider and Tom Wopat, of
course, but we'll all be joining in for a tribute
to our fans," says Ben "Cooter" Jones, who with
his wife Alma has produced the event for the past
six years.
Jones, Schneider (Bo Duke), and Tom Wopat (Luke)
will be joined onstage by Catherine Bach (Daisy
Duke), James Best (Rosco P. Coltrane), Sonny
Shroyer (Enos) and Rick Hurst (Cletus).
"We've only been all together onstage one time,
last year at the CMT Awards, but we didn't
perform. It was so much fun, though, we thought
we'd all get together again," says "Cooter".
Both Schneider and Wopat have had great musical
success beyond their "Dukes" stardom, ranging from
country music chart busters to Broadway leads.
The entire cast will also be available for
autographs and pictures on both days of CMT
DukesFest, Saturday, June 3rd and Sunday, June 4th.
"Saturday night will be special," says Jones. "The
great Billy Joe Shaver will play, we're having a
demolition derby, as well as the world's fastest
lawn mower race. Then we'll have the "Dukes"
concert, followed by THE PARADE of THE GENERAL
LEES and we'll wrap up the night with a fireworks
show. Now, that's what I call a Hazzard County
Saturday night!"
