We will be a part of the Colgate Country Showdown Talent Show sponsored by KPXI 100.7 FM radio in Henderson. The winner will receive a cash prize plus a chance to move up in the national standings.

Henderson, TX
A great time was had by all as John Rex brought his Jim Reeves Tribute
Show to Henderson in anticipation of the 45th Anniversary of Jim's passing
on July 31. The show was held at the Henderson Middle School and was broadcast
live on Henderson radio, KPXI. Henderson was an important part of the story
of Jim Reeves. Before he left for Shreveport then Nashville, he was a dj
for Henderson radio KGRI. The crowd was well attended as they saw and heard
John Rex sing Jim's biggest hits and tell stories about growing up with
the legend. Special guests on the show were John Secord and Monte Bragg.
Monte won the John Rex Reeves Pickin' Party and Talent Show which was held
just prior to the show. Monte won a placque and the right to sing on the
evening Tribute Show. Monte will also be coming to Branson to sing on John
Rex's Show this fall. Runnerup for the Talent Show was Teri Star who sang
an original song she wrote. Thanks to all who attended and see you next
year.
John Rex sings during the second half of the Henderson Show, He'll Have
to Go.
Mayor Carson Joins, Mary Powell, Neva Reeves and John Rex Reeves at Jim's Memorial to mark the 45th year of his passing. The cross wreath was donated by one of Jim's biggest fans, Ms. Mrytle Mattis of Rose Queens, N. Y.
Monte Bragg, winner of the Talent Show, Scott Reeves and Teri Star, runner up.
