This picture was taken in the Governor`s mansion...
I remember telling Governor Edwards that the piano needed tuning...
I had gone to see him about helping me to form a commission that would represent the music industry
in the state of Louisiana...
He liked the idea very much and eventually signed the bill I had written HB 760 into law...
Irregardless of Edwin's present circumstances...
I always liked him and respected him for what he has accomplished in creating the
Louisiana Music Commission under his administration...
Alexandria Mayor Ned Randolph..who at the time was a young state senator was a co-author of the bill...
