01.12.11: What’s Happening-The Real Deal

Thank you all for your condolences and thoughts and prayers during this terrible time in my life. The outpouring of love shown at the viewing, the processional and the funeral was overwhelming.

I want to thank everyone for their efforts in putting together the two sanctioned benefits that I have approved.

Why do I have to “approve” a benefit?
First all, the vultures are circling, waiting for a misstep. Vultures that will rip off the fans and the good name of Mean Gene Kelton just so they can make a few dollars. Vultures that have no connection whatsoever to Mean Gene, the Die Hard band or the Die Hard fans. After SRV died, there were many “benefits” – and the only people it benefited were the unscrupulous bar owners. None of the money ever reached his widow or organization.

Second, Mean Gene Kelton worked closely with a tight-knit group of top-shelf Texas musicians. Musicians that count on each other to stand together for benefits for fellow musicians, fans of each others band, and our extended families. These are the people that he, and I trust.

I have had to resort to “sanctioning” two benefits – and ONLY two. Although the need is great, Mean Gene would not want to take away from the other benefits and causes that we supported.

If you hear of other benefits, please let me know. As I said, I appreciate the thoughts, but please contact me before going ahead with any planning.

Don’t make me get Even Meaner or call my Die Hard Mafia.

FROM ORGANIZER: More details to follow but mark your calendars for March 12th for a benefit for the Mean Gene Kelton family. Gene played at Ron’s Relay in October and he rocked the place. Now it’s time to rock the place for Gene and his family, and ROCK we will. We have a great lineup of bands (The Die Hards, Driven, Charlie Parker, Outlaw Lynn … and that is just day 2 of announcing event) I’m hoping to have entire lineup firmed up and announced later this week.

Mark your calendars and look for future announcements.

(7.10.2018: Wow did that turn out to be a RIP OFF. I should of listened to myself.)
