Backup Band and Additional Musicians

Thanks to FP, the mystery has been solved. That was Frank Simes that I thought was Steuart. He and John Corey were in Don's solo band at the same time during the EOTI days and I guess John left before IJ tour.

Thanks for the name, FP.

I read on another board that Steuart is touring with Rodney Crowell while the Eagles are off. I didn't know he was also in Rodney's band back in the day. I also found his name in the credits of Vince Gill's album I Still Believe In You and another one I don't remember at the top of my head.

So I did a little research and found Steuart in a few of Rodney's videos. Is that him at the .55 second mark.

Sure does look like him, shun. Good work!

Thanks, Brooke.

I look at other videos and its definitely him. Here's a most recent one from this month and then the second one is another video you can see him more in.

Definitely Stu. He was a Nashville session guy for many years.... But he played for Crowell for a long time.

[shunlvswx]

Yeah. I read he was a session player and saw who he worked with. Like I said earlier, it was cool to see his name on Vince Gill's I Still Believe in You album. That's one of my favorite albums of his.

I got Steuart right this time. LOL I had got him and Frank Simes mixed up, but it looks like Steuart had short hair in the 80s and 90s compare to Frank who had long hair during that time.

I guess

Will Hollis getting some great face time in this video

I like especially the bit where Will says something to someone across the stage(leaning away from his microphone, of course) and then he laughs at their reply. Cute
