This event has still gotten me puzzled. This much I'm sure of. It was on a weekend. I'm a weekend musician and played mostly Fridays and Saturdays. The place we were playing that night no longer exists so I guess I can mention the name. The name of the place was called the Barn in a small town of smithville. I was riding with the sound man. We stopped at a stop sign close to where we had to make a left turn to enter the Club parking lot. I was not driving. The person who was did not see it, and at the time I did not mention it at first. The shape is hard to tell it was very dark in that area. I do remember 3 very large windows on the right side of the craft. It moved very slowly north. I only saw it briefly so I didn't get much detail. It wasn't until I got to the club that I would discover exactly what it was. After arriving at the club, the sound man,myself and a few others were unloading the equipement from the van when the lead singer showed up with the two people that she had been riding with. They had taken a different route to the club. They were all very excited and leaped out of the car shouting, "did you see it?, did you see it?" The first words out of my mouth were, did it have 3 large windows on it's side? They replyed that it did and started to tell us all what they had encountered. Once they had noticed it they stopped the car on the side of the road. The to younger girls got out to look at it while the older woman stayed in the car. They were shouting at it to land and were waving their arms in the air when it just disappeared from right over their heads. I haven't seen the girls in a long time but I know I can trace them down if I have too. The older woman to this day will not discuss what she saw for fear of being labeled unstable. The other two girls live outside of nashville now in Tennesse.
