Additional information on The Byrds Celebration

"Terry Jones Rogers was invited to join The Byrds when they reformed in 1988, by Michael Clarke, who met Rogers in Hilton Head,SC. This led to a long association with The Byrds, as he fronted the group on it's national and international tours.
1989:
This line-up included Michael Clarke, Skip Battin, Carlos Bernal, Jerry Sorn and Terry Jones Rogers. John York replaced Bernal on the 2nd half of a national tour, but departed after only a few months, flying home to be with his expectant wife. At this point, Skip Battin stepped up to the bass position, as he did in his former stint with The Byrds. This 4 piece line-up of Michael Clarke, Skip Battin, Jerry Sorn and Terry Jones Rogers then embarked on their first extensive tour of Europe, as The Byrds featuring Michael Clarke. This line-up continued to tour until Michael Clarke's untimely death, in December of 1993.
In early 1994, Terry Jones Rogers and Skip Battin formed The Byrds Celebration, along with newcomer Scott Nienhaus, who had been introduced to Rogers by their mutual friend Supe Granda of The Ozark Mountain Daredevils, and Ron Gremp, also a member of The Daredevils.
When Gremp returned to his gig with The Daredevils, Gene Parsons agreed to reunite with his old "Byrds' mate Skip Battin, and THE BYRDS CELEBRATION embarked on their first European Tour in 1994."

"The Byrds Celebration 1994:
At the end of this 1st tour of Europe for The Byrds Celebration, Gene Parsons left to work with Fender Guitars, designing guitars with his patented Stringbender mechanism, that he had designed for Clarence White. Vince Barranco, a very talented session drummer in Nashville,TN, replaced Parsons, performing with THE BYRDS CELEBRATION, as well as playing on The Rogers / Nienhaus Band CD 'Empty Room'.
The Byrds Celebration 1995-1996:
After an automobile accident involving Vince Barranco, Tim Politte, who had worked with Scott Nienhaus in his band, Acousticity and with The Nicolette Larson Band, joined The Byrds Celebration. This line up continued to tour, until Skip Battin retired from touring for health reasons in 1997. Michael Curtis, who had played extensively with both Michael Clarke and Gene Clark, as well as being a member of Crazy Horse, then joined THE BYRDS CELEBRATION.
With the addition of Michael Curtis to the group, came the addition of some Curtis Brothers' classics, like "Southern Cross", recorded by Crosby, Stills & Nash, and "Blue Letter" recorded by Fleetwood Mac."
