As a city filled with a long history of music and art, Augusta is seeking to be added to the Georgia Music Hall of Fame's "Georgia Music Trail" which lists events as well as historical landmarks.

The recently dedicated James Brown Monument is a very popular attraction for locals and out of towners alike. James Brown Arena and James Brown Boulevarde are as well but Augusta has more music history and current events going on than just that.

So in honor of such area related artists such as James Brown, Pete Drake, Amy Grant, Jessye Norman, Steve Morse, Raoul J. Dagget, Brenda Lee, Flo Carter, Terri Gibbs, and others, we ask that Augusta be recognized by the Georgia Music Hall of Fame as part of its Georgia Music Trail.

I see no reason why it shouldn't-and many why it should-be included.

James Brown should be enough... but any guitarist should recognize Steve Morse and the Dregs as inspiration on tape

Augusta, Georgia has been called "Little Atlanta" and should have the recognition it deserves. We have talent here and should not have to go to Atlanta in order to be appreciated for our efforts.

I've sent a letter to State Senator Mullis about 2 to 3 years ago about the Parade of Quartets being included in the Hall of Fame as well and conversed with the late Hon. Henry Howard's son Wayne about it on occassion. Never heard anything. With James Brown, The Parade of Quartets, Oprea's Jessye Norman, Country music's Terri Gibbs, Jazz music's Wycliffe Gordon and others, its an obsurd omittance (intentional or unintentional) that Augusta is not part of this after it birthed these musical geniuses!!!!

This would be a no-brainer if only for James Brown; given Augusta's rich musical tradition, it is a HUGE omission not to be included. It's about the music, not about the marketing, fix it NOW!

Augusta is very active in the arts and we have a lot to offer and a very rich musical history deserving to be added to the Georgia Music Hall of Fame! Your consideration in this matter will be greatly appreciated by the citizens of Augusta.
