Bob Shane And Timothy B. Schmidt

Bob Shane & Timothy B. Schmidt

Before The Eagles Concert In Phoenix, AZ on Wednesday, April 21st, Bob posed with Timothy B. Schmidt in the dressing room. Timothy told Bob the story of how The Kingston Trio had inspired him, and when he was 13, he and two friends performed for family and friends as a Kingston Trio-like group.

Timothy said that at that age, they couldn't afford the striped shirts! Bob is holding the picture Timothy brought for him so Bob could see his young group.

Before the second half, Timothy told the crowd of 35,000 that Bob Shane was in the audience. The whole arena erupted! And of course the concert was fantastic...The Eagles rock!

Kingston Trio iPhone App

The App contains music, concert schedules, videos, Facebook and Twitter feeds, as well as photos, links to KT and related sites, and bios of the present and past members of the group. 

We also included an audio stream of full-length songs (which we will change from time to time) that start playing when the App launches. 

Larry Brambrut, owner and chief creative officer of VeryMobileApps in Atlanta, Ga, developed the App for us. Larry has been a folk singer and Kingston Trio fan since the beginning and said it was a great honor to be able to develop the App for the Trio. The Kingston Trio iPhone App is a " free" download from iTunes.
