Sounds LikeMichael Wayne Rimmer How to Make a Michael Wayne Rimmer: Take a healthy dose of Alan Jackson, mix in 2 parts Tim McGraw, add the smooth sound of George Strait and the spice of Hank, Jr. shake like hell and pour over red hot coals

The Bootleggers How to make a Bootlegger: Take 3 parts Southern Rock, 2 parts Country, season liberally with Metallica, Tool, CCR, and Seger, pour over 3 fingers James Taylor and Chicago. Stir in a pinch of classical and jazz, shake until combustable, then stand back - keep away from open flames...

   About Michael Wayne Rimmer

Thursday, June 22 and Friday, June 23rd, Michael Wayne Rimmer and The Bootleggers were ranked the Number 1 North Carolina Country Artist on an Indie Record Label in MySpace Music

Michael Wayne Rimmer was born and raised in Gastonia, North Carolina in the foot of the blue ridge mountains. He is currently recording his debut CD entitled "Keep On Diggin" on the Independent A.R. Records label. Michael Wayne Rimmer appears here courtesy of A.R. Records.

Country through and through. You'll see him get down with southern rock on occassion during live shows but there is no backstreet boys to this guy. Country is about attitude as much as it is about music - and right there at center stage is Michael Wayne Rimmer.

Teaming up with MWR are The Bootleggers which includes recording artist/songwriter/guitarist Wes Nance,recording artist/songwriter/guitarist Stewart Coley, recording artist/songwriter/bassist/producer Rhob Elliott, and powerhouse songwriter/studio - live drummer Big Twig Smash. Together they are delivering a sound that is amazing and never before heard coming out of North Carolina. This is a powerhouse group that should not be missed either live or on CD.

Make sure you add Michael Wayne Rimmer and the Bootleggers on your friends list today. When the CD arrives ready for distribution at A.R.Records, myspace friends and Fanclub Members will be the first to hear it - and the first to be able to get their own copy! Also, our myspace friends could get all sorts of cool stuff from time to time as well. So add Michael and add his music as your site song!

*Two moons on 27th August*



*27th Aug the Whole World is waiting for.............*



Planet Mars will be the brightest in the night sky starting August.



It will look as large as the full moon to the naked eye. This will cultivate on Aug. 27 when Mars comes within 34.65M miles of earth. Be sure to watch the sky on Aug. 27 12:30 am. It will look like the earth has 2 moons. The next time Mars may come this close is in 2287.



Share this with your friends as NO ONE ALIVE TODAY will ever see it again.

I'm still here! I kinda feel "out of the loop" these days since everyone is taking a break! I'm used to more "action" going on! Anyway, I am going to have a dinner for all of you guys (B.C. and MWR) at our house around Christmas. It'll either be the weekend before or the weekend after Christmas. I'll let ya know. Shannon and Haley are welcome to come, too. Just thought it would be nice for ALL of you to be able to hang out for a day without worrying about the albums, practicing, etc. No pressure. . . just hang out and chill. It seems like no one gets a chance to do that any more!
