My Meeting With Catherine Bach


Recommended Posts

Greetings from Hazzard Tn.

Have you ever met a cast member of the Dukes of Hazzard more than once and they remember you the next time around, name and all? That's what happened to me this past weekend in Pigeon Forge, Tn. I attended Rhythm in the Hills this past Memorial Day weekend and Catherine Bach was a guest host on Saturday. She was scheduled to be there signing autographs on Saturday and Sunday.

When I arrived Friday evening, I was watching Lorrie Morgan's concert with my colleagues from the radio station who were there when I get a call on my cellphone from the B Man, another colleague of mine who was backstage. The conversation went like this:

VOICE MAN: Hello.

B MAN: Will, where you at right now?

VOICE MAN: I'm watching Lorrie Morgan with Earl and friends

B MAN: I'm backstage and Catherine Bach wants to meet you right now so get your butt back here quick!

VOICE MAN: I'm on my way!!!

I had to make like the Six Million Dollar Man and run at "bionic speed " (I ran as fast as I could go) and was admitted backstage. B Man had met her and told her about me, my voice impressions, and my ability to talk like all the cast members. B Man told me her reply was something like: Oh my gosh I want to meet him. Get him back here if you can!

I met her and she was nicer than I ever imagined. Catherine had me do my voices for a couple of camera guys who were there with her filming a pilot for a show she wants to launch on CMT called, Life in Hazzard.

To make a long story short, Catherine Bach wanted to get me on stage with her Saturday night to do my voices, but it didn't happen. The event coordinators screwed things up, but I was 99% close to doing it.

The greatest compliment of all was that I saw Catherine Friday, Saturday, and Sunday of that weekend and she remembered me and my name all three days. Now this isn't a minor player or supportive player on the Dukes. This is Daisy Duke herself!!!! I mean this lady meets millions of people every day and I am amazed that she would remember me. I may or may not get to see her at Dukesfest because I imagine the line to see her will be backed up to New York. If I don't get to see her, at least I accomplished my main mission this past weekend.

I repeat my question. Have any of you met cast members of the show more than once and they remember you by name? If you have, tell me about it. I'm curious to know.

Cheers.
