Time to remember a Branson entertainment pioneer

It's time to remember entertainment legend and comedian Lyle Mabe of The Baldknobbers Show. He passed from the scene on Saturday, February 27, 2010 in an Ozark, Missouri nursing home after a long illness. He was 71.

The Baldknobbers started performing in 1959. Lyle Mabe played the washtub bass in the show from 1959-1991 and was well-known as the "George Aggernite" character. Some of you might also remember Lyle in the tv commercials for Empire Gas. His son Brent is currently the music director for The Baldknobbers.
