Del Shields |
| Description: |
Anyone familiar with the top trail riding show on satellite television, "Best of America By Horseback", will surely be familiar with Del's career as the featured entertainer on the weekly TV show produced by Tom and Pat Seay of Culpeper. Along with this cowboy's television career, he was also a regular voice on the world wide internet radio show "World Talk Radio." Despite Del's wide ranging travels, he still makes time for appearance at school functions and senior's assisted living facilities.
A motto Del developed for his shows is "Come As You Are, Prepare To Go Home A Little Bit Western." This cowboy entertainer truly hopes to share not only his music and poetry with his audiences, but also a bit of the heritage of the American cowboy. Because of this, audiences everywhere attest to the fact that "you leave Del's show feeling as if you heard the bawling of the cattle and saw the setting of the copper colored western sun over the desert mountains".
So reserve your tickets early for this one-of-a-kind Cowboy Concert on Saturday evening! Check back often, as tickets information will be posted soon! |
